About Jodi Detjen

I challenge organizations to question the operating assumptions that quietly shape their culture — and then I help them build something better.My work sits at the intersection of strategy and transformation. I partner with companies to rethink how they hire, promote, and develop leaders, replacing default patterns with intentional practices that actually leverage the talent they already have. The result: workplaces that are more innovative, more productive, and more equitable.I bring deep subject matter expertise in organizational change, women\'s leadership, leadership program design, and experiential learning — backed by nearly two decades in higher education and consulting. As Associate Dean at Suffolk University\'s Sawyer Business School and co-owner of Orange Grove Consulting, I operate across both worlds: shaping the next generation of business leaders while advising the organizations they\'ll lead.What drives all of it is a simple conviction: organizations perform at their best when every person in them has real permission to perform at theirs.Specialties: Organizational Change | Strategist | Speaker | Making Change Happen | Women and Leadership
