You are launching your own business in April. What has led you
to leave a Global Fortune 100 company to go out on your own?
This move is more calling than career change. The
last 15 years of leading in the healthcare industry, I
have witnessed a tremendous amount of change. In my
role as Change Agent, I aided leaders in organizational
change to raise employee engagement, streamline
processes, and deliver on the bottom line. When I
saw the impact on the culture when engagement
scores shifted from 60% to the 90% engaged, I felt
like a “catalyst of awesomeness”. People re-awakened
and the organization had soul again. I then gained
certification as an executive coach through Healthcare
Coaching Institute. My mission is to duplicate these
types of results throughout other organizations.
What do you do as a Change Agent?
Change is hard but predictable. I coach leaders
and teams to achieve their highest potential. I work
with leaders in co-designing strategies that remove
obstacles and accelerate team performance. As leaders
instill desire in their teams, people commit and embrace
the needed change. As a result, the organization saves
time, energy, money and improves their business
performance.
What inspires you most about your work?
I am inspired by the leaders and teams I support.
Through a process called Team Advantage™ leaders
find new, meaningful, and fun ways to work together.
The courageous coaching conversations inspire
collaboration and connection that liberates teams to
accomplish extraordinary goals.
Tell us about your involvement in the community.
I love Macon and the enthusiasm that is growing
around music and the arts while embracing the beauty
of our historical architecture. I am an active member
of the Macon Octoberfest Board, Intown Macon
Neighborhood Association Board and will be joining
the board at the Museum of Arts and Sciences. I have
previously served on Bragg Jam (Past President),
Historic Macon, and the Macon Heritage foundation.
I am also an active member of the Mulberry United
Methodist Church.
