ABOUT MARINA FIELD Ph.D
Marina launched North Star Workforce Solutions LLC to serve organizations that rely on knowledge workers – employees that use information to guide decisions.
She strives to help organizations improve their understanding of what employee behaviors lead to success.

Her primary focus was always on and continues to be on developing tools and resources that empower her clients to achieve their strategic goals.

WHY WE EXIST
To build a bridge of understanding between different organizational stakeholders so they can more effectively work together to be successful. We do this by empowering business leaders, managers, and HR professionals with guidance, training, and tools – a complete “playbook” for creating meaningful impact within their organizations.
WHAT MAKES NORTH STAR DIFFERENT
We introduce Big Picture thinking and detailed implementation to every challenge. This structured, linear approach allows every solution we provide – from facilitating a meeting to developing change strategies – to be actionable, follow a logical process, and drive achievement of leadership’s primary objectives.
WHY NORTH STAR?
It is good business sense to delegate the responsibilities of change management, leadership development, and facilitation to an organization that has over a decade and a half worth of experience providing targeted answers, real-world solutions, and practical strategies to solve workforce challenges – especially if your organization does not have dedicated employees and resources for those responsibilities
