Delores B. Lindsey, Ph.D.

Dr. Delores Lindsey believes that the culture of an organization or team is best reflected by the communication skills, language and stories used within the organization. She captures many of these stories in her writing and speaking. As former Director of the California School Leadership Academy at the Orange County Department of Education, Delores leads and coaches organizations using motivational and inspirational communication skills, "strategic visioning" techniques, team development strategies, and leadership standards for excellence. Drawing from her Southern heritage, Delores shares her personal stories as a student, classroom teacher, middle school principal, and professional developer. Audiences, workshop participants, and graduate students appreciate her refreshing look at life within an organization as reflected in the stories and language of its members. She serves as coach and Adaptive Schools consultant for schools and districts. Delores is an Assistant Professor at California State University, San Marcos, San Marcos, California. She is co-author of Culturally Proficient Instruction: A Guide for People Who Teach (Corwin Press, 2002).
