Quotes:

  •  I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach for my clients individually or in a group setting. I believe that each individual is worthy and deserving of that level of detail.
  • I am drawn to and naturally curious about the strengths of others and how they can double down on those strengths. This is where the magic happens in the form of employee engagement and productivity.
  • I want to hear about all the things that you're interested in when I'm having a conversation with someone. It's the foundation for what I call curiosity conversations.
  • My clients can move faster, and it's not just about the work I do with them in my one-on-one coaching practice or the things I do with my group coaching programs.
  • The best thing about these five strengths is how well they complement each other. In my opinion. You get an exceptional leader and relationship builder good at strategic thinking, executing, and influencing.
