For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by the concept of influence. Why it is that sometimes a person enters a room, asks a question or gives direction and the audience leans in, engages, and steps-up? While other times - often saying the same things..., struggle to get individuals to look up - let alone drive positive action? I wanted to know what made my teachers, coaches, teammates, colleagues, and early managers impactful - or not?

Initially as a student of Dr. Paul Hersey - author of the Situational Leadership© Model, and since with thought-leaders on coaching, EQ, positive psychology, authentic leadership and more, I have studied how individuals can maximize their influence potential in any context. My practice is built on helping leaders of all stripes to ensure that when they engage, their audience listens, engages and acts.
