About me

When I started my 20 year career as a Manager at IBM I quickly learned that the skills that made me sought after and admired as a technical expert wouldn’t make me successful in a leadership position. I had to focus on new skills that would help me get things done through my team.

I had several wonderful mentors who helped me acquire those skills by making suggestions, being a sounding board and a cheerleader. Now I'm on a mission to help first line managers acquire and hone the skills needed to become dynamic and confident leaders. I want to help them achieve success while retaining their unique personality.
In my blog at

http://www.careershock.com I focus on the daily decision making issues that managers face.

I have a B.S. in Mathematics from Auburn University and an MBA from the University of South Florida.
I am a graduate of the coach training program at Coach Training Alliance and am a member of the International Coaching Federation and The Association of Coaching and Consulting Professionals.
