Tonianne DeMaria Barry

Tonianne DeMaria Barry’s consulting career spans the fashion industry and government agencies, nonprofit associations and Fortune 100 corporations, start-ups and international development. Her academic training in history lends itself well to management consulting, where she contends that especially in business, the present value of the past is often under-appreciated.

Forever asking Why and How things happen, she helps her clients uncover, analyze, and interpret their institutional artifacts. Leveraging the stories and values embedded within an organization’s culture, she helps individuals use their history to establish priorities, achieve goals, and make informed and innovative decisions. Much like Personal Kanban itself, she wants her clients to acknowledge their past and present contexts, appreciate the interconnectedness and flow of events, and extract lessons from the patterns which emerge so they can better plan for the future.

Most recently, Tonianne worked on projects at the World Bank, the United Nations, and Comcast.

Along with Jim Benson, she is co-author of Personal Kanban: Mapping Work | Navigating Life.
