About
My Story
Karen Noble, Principal
I love my job!
I get to do what I love every day – whether it’s helping an individual work through a challenging transition or an organization to find its purpose. As an Organizational Development Consultant based in New Jersey, I help both non-profit and corporate organizations develop positive leaders and manage change at all levels. I do this through executive coaching, consulting engagements, and facilitation of workshops and team engagements.
My approach is based on the principles of Positive Psychology, the research-based branch of psychology that focuses on what makes people thrive in their lives and how individuals, schools, and organizations can apply it in practical ways.
My Background
Like so many who grow up in the Detroit area I had the great opportunity to work in the automotive industry. My favorite projects were the organization development initiatives that helped businesses re-assess and improve the way they did things. I thrived on the positive energy around these strategic change initiatives! I have since had the opportunity to work with organizations in a variety of industries from financial to fashion!Noble Concepts Inc.
I am no stranger to change and the challenges it can bring. Within a short period of time I experienced significant changes in my life including moving home and job, deciding to go back to school, where I earned my master’s degree and then a Certificate in Positive Psychology. I then started Noble Concepts Inc. I have since been published, developed my own tools and models, and am affiliated with other reputable organizations. My experience includes consulting, executive, career and life coaching, and facilitation and spans both corporate and non-profit businesses across continents.I have a lot of energy!
I value continued professional growth through study, research, and writing as well as personal achievement through participation in open water endurance events and triathlons. I have been an active member of several Boards and currently support leadership teams in a variety of consulting capacities. I was instrumental in the transformation of two NGO boards that hit “re-set”, and I am active in the community. Some of my favorite non-profit organizations in NYC are Back on My Feet and Broadway Community Inc.What People Are Saying
