True or False: I started my career as a trained Counselor, working with

adolescents.

Well, true. You can see that on my LinkedIn page. It's also true that adolescents

were my chosen population.

Why? 

The answer was clear for me: a population of unlimited potential who needed

to understand how important their contributions were, are, and will be.

Sense a theme?

Back in those days, I was known as "Group Girl". I designed a full slate of

psychoeducational group curricula and facilitated the groups as well. As I moved

forward in my own career, those skills lent themselves to the corporate training

side. You know the ones: the soft skills. Empathy. Active Listening. Effective

Feedback. Communication. Collaboration. Those skills were in my wheelhouse,

sharpened by my mentors, and became applicable to every training situation I

found myself in.

Soft Skills are currently at the top of the list of most in-demand skills in the

working world. Effective soft skills in the workplace equal a positive and trusting

culture. Employees want to stay in an environment where they feel safe,

supported, and heard. 

In the corporate training space, I use my knowledge to help companies build

effective cultures using soft skills training for all levels, from new employees to

mid-level managers to C-Suite.
