AUTHOR DANNA BEAL, business consultant and international speaker has been conducting her groundbreaking workshops on “Leading with Spirit and Compassion” and “The Compassionate
Workplace” to leaders and employees in a wide variety of industries. She has been a workplace consultant and trainer for twenty years. Her clients have included financial institutions, legal and
accounting firms, museums, hospitals, automobile dealerships, hospital, physician practices, government agencies, not-profits, retail and banks. She has been on 50 radio and TV talk shows discussing
her new model for leadership. Her book, “The Tragedy in the Workplace: The Longest Running Show in the Country,” evolved out of her business consulting and leadership-development workshops and makes
her program accessible to readers for the first time. An authority on expanding human potential in the workplace, Beal has designed an innovative model that enables CEOs, managers, and organizational
heads to achieve new levels of business success while restoring trust and integrity. This original model uses the metaphor of theater to teach individuals how to operate from authentic power rather
than egos and personal agendas, and how to identify and unravel the web of intertwined egos operating in the drama. Most of all, she teaches leaders to replace fear with trust and compassion so that
true synergism and teamwork can emerge. She identifies the current ego-driven management that is dousing the spark of creativity and limiting the success of organizations. She cites leaders motivated
by greed and personal agendas are unwittingly shooting a hole in the fuel tank and wondering why they aren’t getting better mileage. “Now, more than ever, great leaders are needed to heal the
workplace and restore public trust and relationships” says Beal. She holds a B.A. from Washington State University and an M.Ed. from Whitworth College. She lives in Bellevue, Washington.
