The Lumen Process
Amy Siegrist, PhD
Complex situations and competing demands challenge and distract us from making clear, confident decisions and action plans. I partner with individuals, teams and organizations to create calm, clarity and action using strategic analysis. Together, we organize and process the details of their situation with a solution-oriented lens, and when appropriate, create a framework for effective communication and collaboration with key stakeholders.
Clarity and insight are strengthened by a mind-body approach to wellbeing; for those who are interested, I integrate breath work and movement with pragmatic analysis.
Every client engagement is customized to their unique situation and goals.
Who do I support?
-
Executives, professionals, teams

Melding training and experience in human development, corporate strategy and Tai Chi I partner with you to clear cluttered thinking using structured analysis and to create a more felt sense of calm and ease. I call this The Lumen Process: an intellectual and intuitive approach designed to cut through everyday distractions and construct new frameworks that guide work, life and ways of being with focus, intention and follow-through.
The Lumen Process & my approach are informed by my educational and professional experience as well as by countless collaborations with mentors, teachers, colleagues, friends and community members.
