Note about teaching ALA 175: Foundations in Leadership

I am passionate about teaching the crucial skill of learning to lead oneself. In my many years of corporate and academic experience, I have witnessed firsthand how learning to lead oneself first positions us best to lead others as we jointly navigate the complexities of our personal and professional worlds. My aim is to empower you with mindfulness and authenticity as personal leadership capabilities that will serve as the bedrock of your success as an impactful leader. Together, we will explore the dynamic interplay between personal growth and effective leadership, setting the stage for your continued development as leaders and best.
