In today's fast changing world of work, professional development should be accessible for every person in every organization. As a coach and consultant, I help people identify their value and take action to increase their visibility and contributions strategically. As your accountability partner, I can help you identify best practices to make learning applicable and build a culture of learning. During my time working in Learning and Organizational Development, I became known as the voice of Learning & Development. As such, I was able to influence and make a positive impact on employee experience and organizational results. I collaborated with Human Resource Business Partners and leaders across the organization to understand needs, make recommendations, and implement solutions. My roles included professional and leadership development, performance management, career coaching, custom team building, and workshop facilitation. • Design your career development goals and identify action steps for success• Build stronger teams and high trust relationships• Develop and strengthen leadership skills at all levels• Identify skill building that aligns talent with business strategyStrengthsFinder:• WOO - Winning Others Over• Ideation• Input• Strategic• IncluderCertifications:• Certified Professional Coach• Emergenetics Personality Assessment• Lumina Learning Spark Assessment• FranklinCovey Leadership Programs • DDI Leadership Training Testimonials from former colleagues:“She was always engaging and thought provoking and she had a way of making any training seem tailor made for your own situation.
