Our Purpose
Enabling Action exists to remove barriers to professional growth and organizational effectiveness by developing people, aligning culture, and creating the conditions where individuals can thrive.
Our Approach
Enabling Action employs strategic facilitation, professional development, and human-centered learning experiences to build community while eliminating barriers. We aim to help people take confident action towards individual or shared goals.
Our Story
Enabling Action was born from a simple yet powerful realization: organizations often have the talent they need, but lack the behavioral framework to unlock it. Our journey began with a focus on bridging the gap between scientific research and daily workplace operations.
Founded on the principles of psychological safety and evidence-based consulting, we have evolved into a trusted partner for leaders seeking to transform their cultures. We believe that when people feel safe to speak up and empowered to act, extraordinary results follow.
Today, Enabling Action works across industries to normalize collaboration, drive innovation, and build sustainable growth by keeping the human experience at the center of every strategy.

Outside of Work
When Dr. Enquist is not working, she is finding an adventure to explore with her husband, Evan, and pup, Harper. They reside in Orlando, FL, and love finding some water to keep them cool in the Florida heat; think oceans, pools, resorts, they love them all.

Part of the fun is traveling to visit friends and families. Laura is the middle of three siblings born and raised in Abilene, Texas.

Interested in Collaborating?
We enjoy collaborating with forward-thinking leadership teams in technology, healthcare, service, and higher education. Our ideal partners are organizations curious about psychological safety as a tool to drive sustainable cultural transformation by focusing efforts on human-centric strategies.
While we do take our work seriously, we also love collaborating with companies, leaders, and individuals that enjoy the process, like to laugh, and know how to work hard.
