We energize individuals, build productive inclusive teams, and shift systemic cultures. Working with individuals, teams, and organizations, ICW Consulting provides the following. We are also open to working with you on a customized project outside of these offerings, so long as it aligns our values.
Coaching & Personal Development for Leaders
We provide executive coaching and other developmental opportunities for senior leaders and managers. We strengthen leadership and processes by working with real and present issues while building self-awareness, and interpersonal and group skills. Coaching can be individual, or come as part of a package for all leaders in an organization.
“I have known and admired Ilene Wasserman for years. Ilene is a masterful coach who provides her clients with those critical insights about their perspectives, emotions and behaviors to help them become more self-aware and as a result, to make quantum leaps in their career. She provides her clients a high level of integrity and sensitivity to their individual situations that builds long-term client-coach relationships that continue beyond the term of the coaching engagement. Ilene is always on the cutting edge of how best to develop our future leaders through her research and her work with leadership development organizations. I recommend that you meet with Ilene and you will be convinced of what a wonderful coaching professional she is.”

Team Building & Group Development
Within a larger organization, some clients bring us in to work with a specific team. Using assessments, protocols, and our strengths-based, systems literacy approach, we help teams build capacity to look at the patterns they engage in and shift toward healthier forms of engaging .
Organizational Culture Assessment, Development, & Strategy
From culture assessments to strategic planning, ICW has decades of experience supporting organizations articulating and moving towards a clear vision of who and what they want to be — engaging the whole system..
We provide a process that involves key stakeholders in identifying the current strengths in your organization, in context with what you want to achieve. We help you prioritize the necessary steps you need to take to move quickly and productively toward your aspired vision and goals.
Over the years, Ilene and I have worked together as consultants on organization diagnosis and team development projects. She brings her insights and skills to bear on many challenges teams and its members face and I am continually impressed with how she partners with others to create synergy in the accomplishment of goals. I recommend Ilene highly for any project where results matter as much as the journey.

Fostering Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I)
We support our clients to create cultures that strongly value and seek out opportunities to bring different perspectives into consideration, both within their organization as well as with external stakeholders. Our DE&I work is grounded in decades of experience and feedback, as well as a toolbox of research based and reality tested frameworks.
These differences may be based in personal style; cultural or ethnic background; class background; gender identity or sexual orientation; professional vantage point; an intersecting combination of these identities; and/or other positionality.
Ilene is a highly skilled and sensitive mentor, educator, and coach; she is a person of integrity who brings deep knowledge and wisdom to the critical business of creating inclusive social systems.
