I’m Christy Bowman-White, Executive Director of North Star Leadership and Development LLC.

Today’s leadership calls for a new approach. Strong, sustainable leaders excel in emotional intelligence, foster inclusive cultures, and sustain a balance that supports both personal and professional fulfillment. Yet, many find themselves pushing harder without achieving the clarity, confidence, or deeper connection they seek. If you’re a high-achieving leader, committed to excellence yet struggling to sustain energy, purpose, and well-being, I understand where you are.

With over 20 years of experience in educational leadership—from National Board-Certified teacher to principal —I’ve seen firsthand the toll that relentless dedication can take. I’ve found a better way forward—one that centers on highly effective, people-centered leadership rooted in the value, growth, and impact.

As a Certified Professional Coach and Whole Person Coach™, I guide leaders like you through transformative coaching and consulting. My approach blends narrative, somatic, cognitive, and positive psychology techniques, empowering you to transform ambiguity into clarity, stagnation into continual progress, and doubt into confidence.

At North Star Leadership and Development, we believe that when people feel respected, valued, and connected, they work harder, stay longer, and foster inclusive, thriving environments that create lasting positive impacts within their organizations and communities.

Let’s embark on a leadership journey that honors your whole self, deepens your emotional intelligence, and fosters sustainable, meaningful change.
