Ana Welsh Website
Ana spent ten years as a senior executive at Schweiger Dermatology Group, joining as one of the company’s first executive hires and helping scale the organization from 2 to 93 offices nationwide. She served as Vice President of Operations and later Vice President of Employee Experience, where she helped reduce turnover from 60% to 21% while building an award-winning culture during a period of rapid, year-over-year growth.
Today, as the founder of Ana Welsh Leadership, Ana partners with organizations to improve communication, decision-making, and professional effectiveness at every level. Through her Indispensability framework, she equips leaders and teams to manage Self, Relationships, and Work more intentionally—replacing avoidance with accountability and confusion with clarity.
Ana has worked with organizations including Chipotle, Comcast, Lincoln Financial Group, SAP, Vertex Inc., and Solenis, and teaches regularly at leading universities. She is known for her dynamic, high-energy, and highly interactive speaking style, leaving audiences with practical tools and a fresh perspective on how to lead, collaborate, and perform more effectively at work.
"The Unstoppable Within - Finding Strength when Life Changes Everything "
Life doesn’t always ask permission before it changes everything. This powerful presentation takes audiences on a transformative journey through the moments that test us and reveal the unstoppable force that lives within each of us. Grounded in the truth that resilience isn’t something you either have or you don’t, it’s something you activate
Julie partners with leaders and leadership teams to resolve the communication and behavior patterns that affect accountability, trust, and execution.
She is trusted to facilitate conversations leaders often avoid, bring clarity to expectations, and equip leaders with practical tools they can use immediately with their teams.
Her work supports leaders who are navigating ongoing friction, miscommunication, or performance issues that persist despite effort and good intent.
She delivers this work through leadership workshops, facilitated team sessions, DISC based training, executive engagements, and ongoing leadership development support.”
