As a Forbes Coaches Council thought leader, Fortune 100 leadership coach, and President of Your Leadership Lab, I help professionals raise, re-build, and expand their leadership role inside their corporate world. I’ve successfully re-branded my own career 4 times as one of the few women disc jockeys in radio to host a morning show, to navigating up the career ladder through 4 industries, 2 Fortune 100 companies, and a roller coaster ride of re-orgs, new leadership, and company downsizing. While working 15+ years inside a Fortune 100 high tech company, I learned so much about branding myself, getting bigger leadership opportunities, and gaining the respect and influence of corporate executives – I was named career strategist and personal branding coach to our Fortune 100 company’s VP’s, Directors and high performers for 8 years. And now I help others do the same. I’ve written 2 multiple award-winning books and continue to speak at 500+ global conferences and company events including across the United States, Canada, Ireland, Israel, Malaysia, Mexico, Kenya, Bali and Singapore.
