what it's all about
I help cut worry and waste by prioritizing people.
In the simplest terms, I'm in the business of waste management, just not the kind you usually think of first. It makes me crazy to know how much time, money, effort and resources are wasted daily because leaders don't put their people first.
In the end, every business problem is a people problem. The solution? Make your people better. Treat them as the asset they are. Invest in them. Nurture and grow them and reap the rewards of doing so.
my passion, purpose and approach
- Anyone who's met me knows I can't keep quiet about the value and importance of learning and development as a solution to many of today's business problems. Let's start with asking how does anyone know how to get anything done in your company?
- I am still on the journey of a 25+ year career in Learning & Development, Education and HR; continuous improvement is baked into my DNA.
- Mine is a long-term partnership mindset because it takes time for people to practice what they learn and implement changes that actually "stick" for long-term success in organizations. We're not going to solve your problems in an hour on a Tuesday afternoon.
- Learning is real work, and it needs to be engaging, meaningful, memorable and fun. I call it "edutainment" and I'm a firm believer that this is the answer to the all-too-common "death by PowerPoint" experience that turns us all off.
