PL work
Rita Wuebbeler, MA, PPC, is a Senior Facilitator with Personal Leadership Seminars. She has been facilitating Personal Leadership since 2005 in corporate, nonprofit and higher-education contexts, and was instrumental in introducing PL to Europe and Canada.

Rita has facilitated Personal Leadership for language consultants at the World Bank, pharmaceutical sales executives, and scientists working in drug safety and clinical development. She has co-facilitated PL Foundations seminars in France and Germany, and has co-presented on PL-related topics at conferences in France, Estonia and Germany. She conducts Personal Leadership foundations courses at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, on a regular basis. In Atlanta, Rita teaches Personal Leadership to new homeowners funded by Habitat for Humanity and to corporate clients.

Other work
Rita is the founder and president of INTERGLOBE Cross-Cultural Business Services, Inc., an Atlanta-based international consulting firm. The company offers facilitation and executive coaching in the areas of cultural competence-building, diversity and inclusion, mindfulness and effective team communication.

She incorporates the practice of Personal Leadership in all aspects of her consulting work. This is especially true with executive coaching, in which she helps leaders develop a vision of themselves at their highest and best. She also uses PL in her work with individuals relocating abroad, who must adjust to living and working in new cultural contexts.

Personal background
A native German, Rita spent the first two and a half decades of her life in Europe before moving to Atlanta, which she now calls home.

She recently spent almost four years living and working in Canada, getting to know a new culture from scratch and practicing Personal Leadership on a daily basis.

Academic
Rita holds a Master’s Degree in Applied Linguistics from Mainz University in Mainz, Germany.

Other interests
Rita frequently travels to Europe for work and personal reasons, and occasionally travels to Asia. As a result, she feels at home in many airports around the world.

She recently took up road-biking and is training for an annual 200-mile bike ride for charity to raise money for AIDS vaccine research at Emory University in Atlanta.
