"Working on my leadership brand with Sheila helped me define what leadership looks like and how I want to show up for and support my team.There was self-reflection, examining the role I play in different situations, how I can handle things differently, and a lot of 'aha' moments. I was able to strategize ways to lead more effectively and efficiently while still valuing and respecting my team. Most importantly, I’ve become a better teammate to those around me while still staying true to leadership skills and ideals that matter to me."
