Welcome to the McLemore Consulting website! Please use our website to learn about our services and support your change efforts. None of us have all the resources we need to make important changes in our lives, work organization and communities. I don't have all the resources, but my 20+ years of experience working, managing, consulting and coaching have provided me with information I want to share. I understand that support is critical to change. McLemore Consulting is positioned to support you as you move from considering a shift to actually making a change. Whether you need a coach, consultant, thinking partner or colleague, try us out. We will work with you to determine the right process and support to help you (or your team, organization, community) make the changes you desire.

History

OUR ORGANIZATION.

History of McLemore Consulting: McLemore Consulting was founded by Dr. Jacqueline McLemore in 1991 after she left an internal organization development role at Anheuser-Busch, Inc. She returned to Cleveland Ohio to find several organizations interested in working with her on an ongoing basis. Her latent entrepreneurial inclinations meant that it took some time for her to realize: "I could start my own business!" With the support and assistance of friends, colleagues and professional advisors McLemore Consulting took shape in early 1991. Since that time, Dr. McLemore has worked with individuals, teams and organizations across the United States and in a few other countries. Dr. McLemore always emphasizes an assessment driven, highly customized approach for all the services she offers. She applies social science research combined with current business and industry knowledge to develop approaches that work for her clients.
