Tara Rodden Robinson, PhD, ACC’s Summary
I help the most wonderful, awesome, ambitious people in the world achieve their dreams. I have this crazy vision that the world can be a better place and I work with business owners, entrepreneurs, and social visionaries who want to help make that happen.
The name of my company, Zugunruhe (pronounced zoog.un.roo.ee), means “migratory restlessness.” I see it as the state of mind that signals getting ready for the future. I can help you sort through your options to make the big decisions, to manage your time and your resources effectively, or to find the right path for your business or non-profit.
What's my secret? I give you control. I listen and ask questions to help you figure out what you want and what's most important to you. I’ll help unleash your latent potential.
That's how I help great people to get [good] things done.
