Gayle Gregory

Gayle Gregory is one of three co-authors of "The Grandr Experiment, an Expedition of Self-Discovery", a book about seven universal myths that drive and determine beliefs, behaviors, and their resultant outcomes. The book is foundational in her work with individuals and corporations, since it speaks directly to the reason why things fail to change regardless of the effort applied.She is also the author of soon to be released "Workplace Evolution: Uncommon Sense for Uncertain Times."

Gayle is a former senior manager with two Fortune 500rncompanies, United Parcel Service and Household Financial, where she had over-sight for an operations staff of 535, and technology start-ups and project management, respectively. While at UPS she coordinated several change initiatives that saved the organization $10M annually. Gayle was also later assigned torncorporate to facilitate enterprise-wide change throughout the organization. Asrnone of her start-up projects with Household, she brought a 100 seat call center on line from scratch, in 30 days.

Gregory founded Pure Possibility, a coaching and mentoring program that works with individuals desiring to change old patterns and break free of limitations, and within the Oregon state corrections system, where she conducts meditation and thought awareness training for men in the state's medium security prison.

Most recently she co-founded Workplace Evolution (WE), a resource bank of leading edge consultants whose mission is to catalyze organizational potential and nurture innovative workplaces. WE provides integrated solutions for evolving organizations that connect employees, customers, vendors and community to improve society as well as the organization. Gregory specializes in the deconstruction phase of WE's unique three phase consulting process. As she says, "You can't create the new until you have dismantled the old otherwise you are building on top of shaky ground that will swallow up all your good work."

While working at UPS and traveling five days a week, Gayle finished her BA in Management, an accomplishment that she laughingly states took 28 years from its inception. She graduated with honors right before taking a two-year sabbatical with her husband, where she sailed to Vancouver Island and from there to Mexico aboard her 40 foot sailboat. The adventure was amazing and provided the insights that were the groundwork for the seven myths.
