Cathy Greenberg

Author and Psychologist
Dr. Cathy Greenberg hasn’t just studied leadership and positive psychology and overcoming adversity — she has lived all of these things first hand. She was a managing partner at a Fortune 500 company. She’s been through the challenges of single motherhood and had to overcome significant health problems, and she’s applied the science of happiness to her own life. In other words, Dr. Cathy has real-world experience (and real-world results) that validate her scientific and academic understanding of leadership psychology. This adds a particularly powerful dimension to her consulting and coaching work. It says something very powerful when the company you leave after a successful executive career instantly hires you as a consultant to coach their highest potential executives. And that’s exactly the case with Dr. Cathy Greenberg and her former employer, Accenture.

Jack Sariego

Medical Director, Perioperative Services & Medical Director, Breast Health Program at Aria Health System
As Medical Director for Breast Health and Perioperative Services at Aria Health, and a Torresdale native, my goal perfectly aligns with Aria’s mission to provide high quality, affordable care to our community and I couldn’t ask for a more dedicated, talented group of doctors, nurses and administrators to work with to achieve this goal. I am a board-certified general surgeon with more than 25 years of surgical, administrative and military experience who will help expand and enhance Aria Health’s breast health program. I am fellowship trained in surgical oncology and will focus my clinical work on surgical cases, but am committed to a comprehensive Breast Health Program for Aria Health that is about more than just surgery and oncology. The bulk of my clinical practice was at Jeanes Hospital, where I held positions including Chairman of Surgery, Director of Medical Education, and Associate Director for Perioperative Services. I’m an active member of the United States Air Force Reserve.

It took several “frying pan” moments, including a traumatic car accident in the middle of Fanning’s rapid rise as a management consultant to Fortune 500 companies, to trigger a quest for a deeper sense of purpose, meaning, and significance. “Who are you BECOMING?” became central to Jonathan’s life, businesses, and speaking.With over a decade of experience coaching leaders, from Fortune 500 executives to sole proprietors, Jonathan has developed expertise in the principles, practices, and challenges of creating and pursuing a worthwhile vision! Fanning has built several successful businesses.
