About me...

Cari Bixler, pCC

I am a coach, educator, leadership consultant and an entrepreneur. I am fueled by curiosity and my desire to support others in their pursuit of growth and development. I believe that everyone has both the capacity and the responsibility to lead. That may mean steering the ship for a large company, directing a small team, or simply engaging in self-leadership in your pursuit of a most fulfilling life.

My professional background includes non-profit leadership, juvenile and family services, college administration, curriculum development and instruction, K-12 consulting, and coaching. I hold an undergraduate degree in psychology and a Masters in Organization Development from Johns Hopkins University's Carey Business School. I'm a Co-Active Training Institute trained coach and graduate of their Co-Active Leadership program.  Additionally, I'm a certified Franklin Covey facilitator as well as a HeartMath trainer.

I have more than 20 years of experience coaching individual and groups from around the globe including leaders at all levels from companies ranging from the small start-up to the large, established, Fortune 500 company. I’ve worked with service men and women, educators, parents, athletes and other current or aspiring leaders. I work in partnership with Cornell University in their award winning enterprise leadership programs. I am also a leadership coach and facilitator with New Level Work, an established and respected leadership development company. Additionally, I am an adjunct professor at Anne Arundel Community College where I teach courses in the ICF accredited, Engagement Coach Training program. Developing future coaches and helping leaders bringing coaching skills to their interaction fulfills my professional purpose.

When I'm not working you can find me volunteering at the local hockey rink as a youth hockey coach, team manager, and program administrator. My teams are the Jr Black Bears, the Crofton Cardinals High School Hockey, the Maryland Black Bears, and the Washington Capitals.
