What Our Clients Have to Say

The Change Architects work with Inc. 5000 companies, Best Places to Work companies, and mid-size businesses who are focused on continuous learning, improvement, and growth. They don’t give up and neither do we.

We are boutique integrators, not just consultants, coaches, and trainers. We achieve results by combining our expertise, multiple frameworks, and a bold approach:

No BS Zone + Extreme Bias for Action: We cut to the chase and prioritize action. 

The Change Architecture Framework: We utilize our data-driven framework to remain agile and prioritize your strategic goals over rigid methodologies. Generic doesn’t work for companies who want to maintain their competitive edge.

 Masterclass Mentality: We curate custom and scaleable learning experiences that sharpen your team’s skills and propel them forward with action-based learning events aligned to your company’s objectives.

We’re successful when you’re successful. It’s time to turn those bold plans from your Remarkable notebook into action that all your staff is engaged in.

Meet the Founder

Stefanie

Forget stale and static plans – Stefanie lives and thrives in the fast lane of change. In a world where change is the air we breathe (and plans often gather dust bunnies), she’s on a mission to implement continuous learning and organizational change strategies that lead to innovation and joy in the workplace.

Since 2014, she’s been the president and founder of The Change Architects. In 2022, the Change Architecture framework was created because too many businesses didn’t know how to navigate change and emerge stronger in the process. They had too few tools to build trust, deliver value, fight a common enemy, and align work.

Stefanie holds undergraduate and master’s degrees from Indiana University. Her real qualifications come from hundreds of coaching hours using Erickson International’s solution-focused coaching and holding true to the International Coach Federation’s competencies as a member. She’s the original Pro Troublemaker – always ready to shake things up for the sake of progress and empower leaders to ditch the status quo and embrace the uncomfortable.

When she’s not designing revolutionary learning programs, Stefanie is also the host of the Hot Mess Hotline podcast. These conversations highlight the stories of ambitious leaders who faced daunting challenges and emerged with more resilience, problem solving skills, empathy, and critical thinking models.
