As a professional keynote speaker, certified executive coach, and leadership development consultant, I’m on a mission to change workplace cultures and rid the world of bad management practices.
As it turns out, when you treat people as humans — with needs, goals, and emotions — they perform better, stay longer, and feel fulfilled by the time they clock out. I’m determined to bust all the myths of traditional leadership practices and prove there’s a better way.
By 30 years old, I was a vice president of organizational development and human resources at a credit union that was growing fast.
Although we were rated as “best place to work”, some outdated practices and management approaches were clashing with the company’s vision. In 2008, I launched my consulting company on a mission to modernize leadership practices.
Like many women face at some point in their career, I eventually took on my most challenging role yet: motherhood.
I quickly learned how easy it is to crumble under the demands of managing a team and a family. Some days I feel like a rockstar—being super productive at work and being home in time for dinner. Other days I feel like I’m hanging by a thread—dealing with interruptions and emergencies at work, trying to get those camp forms in on time, picking up a sick child, and making brownies for the school play. It can all feel overwhelming and exhausting.
I believe we can have a thriving professional and personal life, and part of that is cultivating workplaces where employees feel supported, and where they can bring their best selves to work every day. I teach leaders strategies and tools for managing a team at work, while also having the time and space to enjoy life outside of work.
