• And Just Like That… I was on the Other Side

• The Other Side of Perspective

  

  “The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.” – Marcel Proust.

• The Other Side of Corporate Politics

• The Other Side of Leadership

  

  When I got into a leadership role for the first time way back in May 2004, I was a wannabe tigress. Reality quickly turned me into a scaredy cat. Circumstances made me a conniving fox. Ambition had me soaring like a fierce falcon. For the ones who put their trust in me, I was a…
