Crisis Navigation Partners®
for Leaders & Organizations
Life is full of crossroads. You don’t have to cross by yourself.
As leaders, we show up every day to navigate the twists and turns of our lives and work. We juggle and balance as we make decisions and fortify our colleagues and loved ones. To lead consistently — with confidence and authenticity — we benefit from outside perspective.
Connect2 offers a judgement-free zone for creating and implementing viable organizational and individual plans to move forward. Our in-person and Zoom strategy sessions deliver resources plus practical and emotional relief, empowering you to make better-informed decisions, communicate more effectively, feel less stress and isolation, and save precious time.
*We do not offer counseling or a 24/7 crisis hotline. In an emergency, please call 911.*

A Message from Our Founder & CEO

I’m Debra Woog (pronounced “Vogue”), Principal Crisis Navigation Partner® for Connect2 Corporation. I work mostly from my home office in Arlington, MA, while my two children attend college. By nature, I am a connector and a community builder.
Connection and community are essential in a crisis. As a leader who has navigated my own unanticipated challenges, I know first-hand the value of smart, collaborative expertise, especially for women who feel solo in life or work. Even as supremely capable humans, we are better when we cross difficult roads together.
With a B.A. in psychology from Wellesley College and an MBA from MIT Sloan School of Management, I am able to provide both emotional support and practical problem solving, including research, resource matching, and communication strategies.

My team and I are here for you. Schedule your free consultation so we can get you started toward the best possible outcome from your difficult circumstances.
