As a CEO of a boutique professional services firm, The Sidell Method, Ellin Sidell’s heartbeat for leadership flourishes on guiding professionals and managers - at all levels - to advance their careers and enhance their organization’s outcomes.

The Sidell Method is dedicated to assisting smart companies in driving growth by maximizing human-centered process improvement and innovation. The method encompasses a multi-disciplinary approach aimed at maximizing Human Potential.

What breaks Ellin's heart is twofold: Seeing professionals and managers who believe they cannot reach the next rung in their career ladder, and encountering organizations that are stagnant, not growing, not innovating.
 
Her firm helps those organizations, managers, and teams to not just succeed, but to THRIVE in their current roles, use it to position themselves for further growth and impact while upleveling their organization’s processes and innovation results. What many discover through this process is that they also, and perhaps more importantly, gain increased meaning in the work they pursue.

With a 35-year corporate career, she has left a legacy at renowned companies such as Nestle, Microsoft, and Costco. During her time at Costco, the Mentee Ring program that she founded shaped over 200 employees and earned recognition from the CEO, Craig Jelinek.
