Transformational Leadership with BlackWolf Consultants

In this episode, Roxanne converses with Gabriel and Robert Krenza from Black Wolf Consultants, discussing their global reach and transformational leadership. They explore inclusion, personal beliefs, and choosing partners for genuine leadership change. The conversation delves into curiosity's role in the workplace, balancing collaboration and competition, and the dichotomy of personal and professional personas.

The past 2 years have been challenging for everyone, there’s no doubt about it. Leaders everywhere have had a rough road navigating the continuous changes made by our respective governments and the constant demand to keep both their team and superiors happy. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we welcome Robert and Gabriel Krenza from BlackWolf Consultants, to discuss Transformational Leadership and share ideas for making transactional changes.

Robert Krenza founded BlackWolf Consultants to offer leaders guidance on a new journey where they can learn how to transform their lives and attain their goals. Robert gathers facilitators and coaches who act as guards and teachers – sometimes strongly, sometimes gently – but always with heart and meaning. He brings the qualities of courage, perseverance, passion, challenge, compassion, community, contribution, loyalty, and integrity, to his work. He listens to deeply understand the essence of all that is and the unrealized potential in a person, a team, or an organization.

Gabriel Krenza is a graduate of Presido Graduate School with an MBA in Sustainable Leadership and Analytics and is a Senior Consultant with BlackWolf focusing on Responsible Leadership through several methodologies including Wilderness Immersions to reconnect leaders with their environmental and social ethos in their roles in global organizations. As the Founder of BlackWolf Expeditions, Gabriel’s work in both the fields of sustainability strategy and organizational development are inspired by embracing the concept that our lives are intrinsically interconnected with all other lives on this planet.

Robert and Gabriel gave us so much great information that we are splitting this into a two-part series, so be sure to tune in again next week for Part II.
