VISIONARY LEADER | STRATEGIC INNOVATOR
Empowering Teams to Drive Growth, Integrity and Transformation
about me.
Hi there! I’m Bert Strassburg, an executive leader driven by the belief that when we empower others, we create space for transformational change. My journey has taken me from teaching music in classrooms to leading organizations as a CEO, launching and growing a successful business, and leading teams in disability services, nonprofit organizations, and education.Through it all, I’ve remained committed to one thing: helping people become their best selves.
I’ve always been drawn to solving challenges and creating innovative solutions. Whether scaling programs to serve hundreds more people or building systems that prioritize person-centered care, my passion lies in fostering environments where individuals and teams thrive. I’m proud to have worked with organizations navigating change, growth, and transformation, combining strategic vision with a personal touch to create lasting impact.
Leadership, for me, is deeply personal. I bring a unique blend of heart and strategy to every project, drawing on experiences that have shaped not only my skills but also my perspective. Growing up as a violinist, I learned early the importance of discipline and harmony, both of which inform how I approach team dynamics and organizational growth today.
I believe in the power of authenticity, connection, and positivity. My leadership style is rooted in creating spaces where people feel seen, valued, and inspired to contribute their best. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that when we invest in people, whether employees, partners, students or people served, the possibilities are limitless.
Thank you for stopping by and getting to know a little about me. I’d love to hear your story and explore how we can create something amazing together.
Let’s connect!
These values aren’t just words on a wall, they shape every decision I make, every team I lead, and every system I build.
TRUST
-
I lead with transparency, consistency, and care. Trust is the currency of great leadership, and I work to earn and protect it every day.
GROWTH
-
Everyone has potential. I mentor and coach with a belief in people’s capacity to learn, lead, and rise. I build strong, connected teams where people enjoy working together, feel empowered to grow, and celebrate one another’s success. Growth isn’t just individual, rather it’s a shared journey that fosters trust, energy, and a culture where everyone thrives.
EQUITY
-
Inclusive leadership isn’t optional, it’s essential. I build cultures where diversity thrives and where everyone has access to opportunity and voice.
CLARITY
-
Great results come from aligned systems. I simplify complexity and bring clarity to purpose, goals, and execution.
RESILIENCE
-
In the face of crisis or change, I stay grounded. I help teams move from reaction to intention through calm, focused leadership combined with emotional intelligence.
MISSION
-
Work should mean something. I align systems with mission and values so that every person knows why their role matters. When people understand the greater impact of their work, they don’t just perform better, they help change the world.
