My Passion
Why Work With Me?
As an educator and leader, I know what is taught in schools and workplaces, and what is not, and I quickly realized that I could help.
So I started developing simple tools, techniques, strategies and exercises to share what I had learned about emotional intelligence and how it could change the lives of others.
All of my keynotes, online courses, and corporate training programs are backed by leading science and grounded in my decades of in-the-field experience.
Each of my programs will do more than scratch the surface. I help you understand why you do what you do, without judgments or criticism. This powerful personal insight dissolves lifelong roadblocks to growth and change, amplifying your strengths and giving you the tools to manage the hurdles live throws at you, clearing the path for your true potential to emerge.
EI is the key to unlocking true human potential – your own potential as a leader, and the full potential of your team, both as individuals and as a unit.
