About Orahill
​
​I have deep knowledge of and a long-standing passion for all areas of interpersonal communications. Through consistent educational enrichment and experience creating engaging tools, coaching over 1100 professionals, producing 100's of internal programs and teaching over 10,000 students, I have developed a series of actionable interpersonal communication tools to help engaged professionals ensure they have constructive conversations during every interaction.
My toolbelt includes over 186 items, and the first baker’s dozen are featured in: Owning Your IT: Actionable tools to improve your interpersonal communication. The companion workbook will be available in July of 2025.
​​I've created, implemented, and facilitated dozens of large scale, company-wide, years long, leadership development programs. Based on that experience, I opened Orahill to provide that same level of professionalism large companies can afford to small and medium sized companies with the same success.
MBA, PMP, and an ICF Master Certified Coach
What does Orahill mean?
The name was made up to ensure it was easy for others to spell and understand while still available as a URL - I wish it was a more interesting creation.
What Partners are Saying
Devon L.
Senior Analyst
"Margot is enlightenment. Her positive impact on an organization and the people within it continues far beyond her own efforts as the people that she works with are able to "pay it forward" and leverage what they've learned to help others do the same. Key to these successes is Margot herself. People believe in her and know that whatever she chooses to do is going to be done well and turn out to be a success. Margot has significant experience and uncanny intuition about people and organizational/industrial psychology dynamics that she can leverage in an objective and non-judgmental way to guide people towards their own personal enlightenment about themselves and others around them. She brings an ever-growing repertoire of diverse and interdisciplinary techniques to the table that she is able to tailor and adapt to guide others to learn how to grow as managers and leaders."
Thane H.
Human Resource Director
"Margot is one of the most polished and knowledgeable, yet down to earth, high-performing professionals I have worked with. She is highly efficient and effective at everything she does, whether it's leading a special project, coaching/training employees at all levels (in groups or one on one) or running any of the many talent management processes that fall under her. One of her superpowers is her amazing ability to quickly boil down a topic or problem and pinpoint the heart of the matter. From there, she can deliver a multitude of knowledge and tools to use toward real solutions. Margot also adjusts her communication style according to her audience to ensure a clear connection. No one ever walks out of Margot's trainings or consulting sessions wondering what to do next. Rather, they walk out feeling empowered and inspired. That's how she rolls!"
Tom W.
Senior Scientist
Margot is "knowledgeable in a way that puts the group at ease. You know how to handle tricky situations (e.g. inappropriate behavior) quickly without making anyone feel singled out. I can't really think of any other way to describe it, but you're just polished, which I use in the Merriam Webster sense of 'characterized by a high degree of development, finish, or refinement : free from imperfections.'"
Ronald D.
VP of Business Development
"Margot deftly worked with a sub-portion of the team to give hard feedback to the supervisor in order for the team to become more effective and productive. She has attended numerous all hands meetings in order to facilitate the discussion, bring the team to decision, mediate the uncomfortable blockages of the team and move us forward to decision making much faster than we would have done on our own. She is able to cut through the undertones and subtext of the conversations and tactfully get and keep us on track for success."
Tanya B.
Senior Technical Fellow
"Margot has taught me to understand myself first – there is high value in understanding what your values and goals are, and how you plan to achieve these goals. Margot has also taught me to listen to my colleagues in a way where I truly understand their values and goals, so that they feel understood and valued. Margot’s efforts to work with me have had a profound impact in my daily working life with my colleagues – I can see improvements in all of my interactions with my superiors, my peers, my direct reports, and my customers."
