Rosa Say

Rosa Say 2009 Aloha. I am a manager, writer and workplace culture coach obsessed with revealing the good made possible by value-alignment, not just for me, but for everybody. I won’t impose my values on you, but I will challenge you to live and work within the truth and integrity of yours.

Hawai‘i has shaped my sense of place, and I’m an energetic teacher and speaker in the Aloha-woven way called “talking story.” I value conversation, believing we need to talk with each other way more than we do, and so I brought The Daily 5 Minutes® to the workplace. Within each and every speaking or teaching presentation I do, I will suggest conversations you can have to effect positive shift in your workplace relationships.

I’m a pretty prolific writer, for I write to think, learn and grow. The best place to keep in sync with me is at my blog, Talking Story: grab a free subscription! You can talk back to me there, and I sincerely hope you will. Learning within collaborative teams helps me thrive, and better understand how I can serve you. So don’t be shy: Let me know what you’re thinking.

Learn more below, or contact me directly. I would love to hear from you.

Coaching Collaborative Cultures and Communities:

as Team Connector, Energy Creator and Community Activator

My ‘Ohana in Business™ family of companies support the Alaka‘i team dynamics of The Ho‘ohana Community:

We serve others through work with web-based teams and global leadership tribes which thrive in our Kākou “language of we.” Collaboration knows no geographic boundaries today, and we constantly sharpen our communication skills using the toolbox of Managing with Aloha.

Alaka‘i is the Hawaiian value of leadership. Second only to Aloha, Ho‘ohana is intentional work, and a driving force within the Managing with Aloha philosophy of value-alignment.

My hope is that one of these neighborhoods or highly innovative Alaka‘i teams will be a place for you to discover your own Ho‘ohana as you collaborate with a like-minded community of Aloha practitioners.

Est. in 2004: The Ho‘ohana Community originated at Talking Story, still home base for those actively engaging in our vital conversations about teaming which is powered by individual Ho‘ohana initiative.

Ho‘ohiki; my promise to you: I will respect your privacy, and never share your email address with anyone.
