She works with top executives, emerging leaders and high-level managers to stretch their thinking, weigh their impact, understand and use their special talents to target development areas and implement actions. Maximizing strengths, overcoming performance hurdles and seeking an effective balance in light of organizational goals has been a strong emphasis in her coaching.
