Leadership Starts with Relationships

I’ve spent more than 30 years leading teams, solving problems, and helping organizations grow. I’ve worked with nonprofits, businesses, and community organizations across Idaho and the Pacific Northwest—some struggling to survive, others chasing their next big goal.

What I’ve learned is simple: leadership isn’t about titles or power—it’s about people.

Great leaders are built through consistent coaching, clear expectations, and meaningful relationships. They listen. They follow through. They take responsibility. Leadership grows one decision, one conversation, and one relationship at a time.

Every day, I help leaders strengthen those habits—creating workplaces where people trust each other, communicate openly, and perform at their best. That’s the foundation of effective leadership development. It’s not a position. It’s a daily commitment to help people succeed.

Why I Started Conroy Leadership Consulting

During my years as a nonprofit executive director, I noticed something missing. The same leadership principles that make large companies thrive were often absent in smaller organizations—the ones doing the most meaningful work.

I launched Conroy Leadership Consulting in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho to close that gap. Every organization deserves strong leadership, no matter its size or budget. My mission is to make real-world leadership tools, executive coaching, and team training accessible to anyone ready to grow.

Through leadership workshops, board retreats, and one-on-one coaching, I help leaders gain clarity, strengthen communication, and build effective teams.

Leadership doesn’t have to be complicated. When you treat people right, follow through, and hold yourself accountable, your culture transforms. That’s leadership done right.

The Work I Love

I work with leaders across Idaho, Washington, Oregon, and beyond who share one simple belief: there’s always room to improve.

I help them focus on the essentials—communication, accountability, trust, and culture.

Whether I’m coaching an executive, facilitating a nonprofit board retreat, or speaking to a group of new managers, my goal is the same: to help people lead with confidence and common sense.

When leaders grow, everything else gets better. Teams become stronger, morale improves, and results follow. That’s why I do what I do.
