Terre Short Speaker Biography

Terre Short is the CEO and Founder of Short Group, LLC. She has been a coach in some capacity her entire career. Through coaching, speaking, and facilitating she has inspired countless staff, senior leaders, physicians and middle managers to connect to their why, and to harness the power of empathy and personal relationships. She excels in assessing complex situations and helping others break them down with clarity into actionable steps.

Terre has more than 30 years of leadership experience, a Masters in Business Administration/Healthcare Management, her Professional Coach Certification (PCC), and is a Certified Patient Experience Professional (CPXP).

Prior to returning to Short Group, Terre served in corporate healthcare roles for ten years (2010 – 2020), as a high-level executive for one of the largest health systems in the U.S. (HCA), and as a regional director for Huron/The Studer Group.

She first established Short Group in 1995 and at that time specialized in leadership development and consulting, including coaching GMs, CEOs and other leaders. Short Group followed her hospitality career that spanned many senior leadership positions within Four Seasons Hotels and later Pebble Beach Company. Since 1995, she has spoken for a wide range of organizations, and audiences large and small. She is highly sought after for leadership development forums and spoke at the 2018 Annual Becker’s Hospital Review Conference.

Terre published The Words We Choose: Your Guide to How and Why Words Matter in July 2020. The book covers how to choose words that connect to values and intention. It spans the words we choose for ourselves (the voice in your head), with loved ones, at large in the world, at work, through technology (not spoken), and with a higher power. 

Terre coaches executives at Blackrock, Chevron, SalesForce, Intuit, Fidelity, Phillip Morris, Google, Marriot, Masco, Darden…to name a few.

Terre has long been a sought-after expert to facilitate leaders and their organizations to improve results. She is a relatable coach, a creative consultant, and her ability to connect with an audience in small and large groups makes her an excellent speaker and trainer. I have had the privilege to see her in action in each of these settings and would not hesitate to recommend her.

Lyn Ketelsen, Vice President & Chief Patient Experience Officer

Terre coaches me on defining my new business. Her powerful questioning helped me to reason over my skills as a person, and as a consultant, and that led me to clarity around my strengths and preferences. During our sessions, I feel I have a strong alley on my side, she supports me all the way with my self-confidence and self-awareness, and guides me to an effective action plan.

I’m really grateful for my work with Terre. I have gained so much more clarity about my future thanks to her.

Monica Scillieri, Small Business Owner, India

Terre Short is a force of nature! Over the past 10 years I’ve had the opportunity to witness Terre’s prowess in both clinical and educational settings. She brings energy, expertise, and experience to whatever task she under takes and is especially adroit at embodying and teaching communication. She understands the power of words as well as nonverbal signals and astutely practices the three key communication elements: sending, receiving, and discerning that which is in-between. If you have a chance to work with her as a coach, speaker or facilitator, don’t pass it up.

Frank Reed, M.D., Professor Emeritus of Family Medicine, University of Montana

Terre displays great knowledge and understanding of the issues that her clients bring to the coaching sessions. She is able to quickly grasp what is being said and felt by her clients, explore the issues in depth, and ask tough but insightful questions. She empowers them to develop creative solutions and come up with solid, actionable steps towards their goals.
