Owning Your Power℠

What are the most effective techniques for managing the pressures that accompany the responsibilities of leadership – including internal stress, such as imposter syndrome? The key to success is the alignment of awareness (of self and others), authenticity (presence), and emotional management, and it all begins with a commitment to your emotional wellbeing… and a personal strategic plan.
