Guest BIO:
If Not Me – Then Who? – I started speaking and training when the Director of Human Resources for Tops Corporation, where I worked as an accountant, approached me looking for employees to train about 40,000 staff members nationwide in their new diversity-training program. I was nervous atfirst, but I loved the message. I love to master things, so I studied, learned from others and allowed myself to be open to critique. So, nearly two years and over 13,000 trainees later not only had I become an excellent trainer and coach, I had been bitten by the bug and I was hooked!
Grapes on the Vine – My motivation for being in this business is to help people who are lost. My experience has shown me that many adults are stressed out, frustrated, and burned out; not developing because they are unaware they can change or they don’t know how. They are dying on the vine. I know because I was one of those people. I was an overly critical complainer; going home to work and work to home, I had no clear direction on what I wanted, but I was good at pointing out the flaws in others.
Real Change Begins with “I” – The book “Personality Plus” changed my life. It showed me the need for every type of personality and that there is room for everyone. Understanding the need to accept those who thought differently than I did was like the sky opening up.
