Change Takes Having Skin in the Game
Understanding, investment and engagement are essential to successfully implement change.
When people have skin in the game—an investment of their time, and a stake in the outcomes or consequences—change happens faster and more smoothly and it creates an environment where change and people can thrive.
When you work with me, you’ll gain actionable strategies and empathetic guidance to make your transitions seamless and effective.

Signature Talks
My keynote speeches and moderated sessions include:
RTOTM Return to Office
Great for: Leaders wanting their teams to transition smoothly. HR and operations professionals who field questions about policies and company culture shifts. Individuals experiencing a wide range of emotions related to their return to the office.
As organizations transition back to in-person work, leaders, HR professionals and operations teams play a critical role in mobilizing their return and ensuring a smooth and positive experience.
Employees may feel excitement, anxiety, relief, or even resistance as they adjust to new routines, expectations, and dynamics. This conversation helps organizations understand what employees may experience and how to support them through the process.
We’ll cover key topics such as evolving workplace expectations and work styles.
We’ll reconceptualize best practices for engagement, interdependence and maintaining productivity, and we’ll re-envision company culture in a changed environment.
You’ll learn how to recognize signs of stress and misalignment, and communicate with understanding.
RTO conversations can take place as individual town hall formats or as a guided, multi-month engagement with business units and their teams, or 1:1 coaching.
Surviving The C.R.A.S.H. TM
Great for: Leaders and high-achievers in high-stress environments, who have experienced burnout or are at risk for burnout.
To “crash and burn” is a widely-used phrase used to describe the dissension from a high-energy or other favorable environment to a mental or physical space where we feel “down” or “low”. The concept is very often used when discussing stress and burnout in the workplace.
C.R.A.S.H. is an acronym and methodology for maneuvering the highs and lows in stressful environments and situations. The conversation presents disenfranchised grief along a continuum of identified coping strategies; reflection on past stressors and regrets; awareness of the impacts of past stressors; and then healing and transformation.
In this talk, Marceia helps organizations and employees assess their position and condition at the intersections of personal and professional grief, change and transformation to heal from or avoid stress and burnout.
Great for: Leaders and high-achievers in high-stress environments, who have experienced burnout or are at risk for burnout.
A “Mineful” Visualization Experience
Great for: Socially responsible companies expanding their mental and emotional wellness programs and resources with creative, holistic programs
Simple wordplay–referring to her visualization practice as “mineful” over mindful–helps Marceia’s community embrace meditation. Her self-centric method, which has a person create and observe mental images of themselves, yields an immersive visualization experience that removes any angst of “not doing it right.”
Rather than suppressing thoughts, the mind becomes a space for surrender. Marceia teaches participants how to apply “mineful” techniques and develop mantras that align with the changes in transformation they desire.
