I’m Whitney Egstad, PhD. I believe learning is the most powerful force for transformation: a catalyst that turns individual growth into collective progress. For 16 years, I have designed and scaled learning strategies that have driven both personal development and business success. I’ve built end-to-end programs, from assessment to continuous improvement, that drive transformation.

What sets me apart is my ability to connect learning directly to mission-critical strategy. As you’ll find across my case studies below, I align programs with enterprise goals, forge strong partnerships with stakeholders, and use data to deliver and prove impact. I create practical and engaging solutions that visibly move the needle. With a balance of strategic vision and hands-on execution, I bring a passion for making every learning initiative both a business win and a personal breakthrough for participants.

Alongside my work in learning and development, I am a published poet and dance teacher. My creative practices shape how I lead and approach challenges: they sharpen my eye for nuance, reveal connections others might miss, and strengthen my commitment to embodiment. I design events and learning experiences as stirring narratives. I close every experience like a good book you never want to end and leave a lasting impression that is felt, embodied, and applied.
