About Lori
The Woman Behind the Work
Speaker. Consultant. Facilitator. Creator of the Science of PACE™.
Her Story
Decades of Watching People. One Powerful Framework.
Lori Pace has spent over two decades working alongside leaders, teams, and organizations — observing what actually happens in rooms when people are under pressure, in transition, or trying to perform at their best.
Out of that consulting work came the Science of PACE™ — a program Lori designed by drawing on her deep familiarity with neuroscience, behavioral science, and the humanities. Not as a credentialed scientist, but as someone who has studied these fields closely and translated them into practical tools that work in the real world.
"You don't need a lab coat to understand people. You need to pay attention."
The Journey
Different Fields. One Common Thread.
Early Career
Consulting in the Room
Lori built her foundation working directly with organizations — sitting in boardrooms, leading workshops, and observing the patterns that determine whether teams thrive or stall.
The Pivot
Rhythm as a Tool
Lori began using the steel drum as a facilitation tool — not as performance, but as a way to set the pace in the room. The effect on group energy, focus, and cohesion was immediate and undeniable.
Today
Changing Paces International
Through Changing Paces International, Lori brings the Science of PACE™ to conferences, corporate events, and retreats worldwide — helping organizations shift how they lead, connect, and move together.
"The steel drum doesn't perform — it sets the pace."
