YOUR JOURNEY

MY JOURNEY

My journey to authentic leadership has been very personal, from emotional and spiritual blindness to fundamental self-awareness. I found out very quickly that my attitude and my perspective had me on a collision course with disaster. In my quest for personal and professional success, I was oblivious to all my blind spots. I was forced to take a good, long look in the mirror, and I didn't like that person staring back at me.

 

Through my new-found humility, I became very intentional about steering my life from that path of inevitable destruction. I learned to build trusting relationships, to take personal responsibility for my actions, and and to build safe avenues of communication for those I lead. The most powerful lesson I learned has been to be authentic continually and to let down my ego. I have been given the tools to stay the course, and I am on a lifelong journey. My desire now is to guide others along their own journey of to self-discovery. N
