About Marjorie Wharton

Transformation Coach & Transition Specialist

Marjorie Wharton is a Transformation Coach and Transition Specialist with more than 30 years of experience helping individuals and organizations move from where they are now toward the future they choose on purpose. Across the public, private, and regional sectors of the Caribbean, she has guided leaders, teams, and entire organizations through moments of growth, change, and increased responsibility — turning uncertainty into intentional, lasting progress.

Areas of Focus

Marjorie concentrates her work where transformation matters most:

  • Leadership Development — Growing the capacity of people to lead themselves, their teams, and their organizations through change.

  • Strategic Planning — Setting clear direction, sharp priorities, and a practical path toward defined goals.

  • Change Management — Guiding people and systems through transition so new ways of working take root and last.

The Envision, Design, Journey Method

At the heart of every engagement is Marjorie's signature methodology — a three-phase approach that brings structure to any transition:

  • Envision — Define the future desired state, clarifying the vision and the outcomes that matter.

  • Design — Build the path forward by mapping steps, sequencing decisions, and focusing energy where it counts.

  • Journey — Move from planning into lived change, guiding people through implementation and helping them hold the gains.

Envision, Design, Journey. Vision, strategy, and execution, working as one.

A Career Built on Transformation

Marjorie's work sits at the intersection of leadership, strategy, and change. For fourteen years, she served as Director of Strategic Business Services at the Cave Hill School of Business (2006–2020), where she set the strategic direction for the school's non-academic programmes, led its Strategic Business Services Unit, and designed and delivered leadership development, change management, and managerial effectiveness initiatives for individuals and organizations across the region.

Today, she brings that experience to leaders and teams ready to grow. Her clients have included professionals and organizations such as Sagicor, Regional Security Systems, the Barbados Revenue Authority, the Fair Trading Commission, and the Barbados Agricultural Development and Marketing Corporation.
