Shelley Boyd
@shelleyboyd
I build stronger leaders, cultures, and operations through executive coaching.
What I'm looking for
I've led operations, financial stewardship, people strategy, and growth at M3 Group while overseeing a 24-person team and integrating a strategic acquisition. I strengthened forecasting, budget monitoring, performance management, KPIs, and a culture of transparency and professional development.
Through Essdee & Co., I've provided executive coaching, keynote speaking, and leadership development for executives, boards, and organizations. I help leaders build emotional intelligence, executive presence, strategic influence, courageous communication, and organizational alignment during growth and transition.
Previously, I led communications, PR, and marketing for the Michigan Association of School Boards, serving 5,000 educational leaders and increasing social engagement by 21% on average. My work combines executive leadership, facilitation, culture transformation, and people-centered operational strategy.
