The fundamental belief that bridging the gap between strategy and execution is foundational to breaking through the business inertia and propelling your businesses forward is what drives Connie Steele. Connie guides her business strategy and marketing consultancy, Flywheel Associates, using this premise. She knows it takes ongoing, consistent proof that your strategic direction makes sense and is working. With this belief, she has enabled her clients - ranging from F500 companies to start-ups - to successfully reposition their organizations, meet their goals, and achieve rapid growth. Her cross-industry, cross-functional experience gives her a unique perspective on what it takes to navigate, mobilize, and realize change in organizations. Connie channels these insights on her internationally downloaded podcast, the Strategic Momentum Podcast, where she’s shared valuable insights from world-renowned psychologists, corporate executives, entrepreneurs and award-winning coaches who offer a unique context on how to create business momentum. She also shares her experience through contributions to Arianna Huffington’s consumer well-being and productivity platform Thrive Global , as well as other business-oriented podcasts.
