When I speak on stage at conferences, conventions, or events, I often share stories of overcoming my own challenges, and some inspiring stories from my clients, or public figures.

A team's success is dependent on the collaboration of each member of the team towards a shared goal. In short, "Nobody wins unless everybody wins!" In a workgroup, each member focuses on their silo of responsibility and measures succes ..read more

These results will only be sustainable if the CEO and their Executive Leadership Team (ELT) effectively lead the people within the organization. Management guru Peter Drucker said it best when he wrote:   "The only definition of a leader is someone who has followers."  This truth highlights that leadership results from a shared psychological group membership (culture) rather than intrinsic to one individual.  This realization triggers the question, “What is the b ..read more
