Experience

1. Chief Executive Officer

   Chapman Foundation For Caring Communities

   Jun 2016 — Present

   My role began with CFCC in 2016 and has had many advancements. I first began as a facilitator of our transformational courses designed to help develop leaders by increasing emotional intelligence and creating environments for team members to flourish. In 2018, I advanced to lead the State of Michigan and implement strategic, long-range goals. Within one year of leadership, we became the largest chapter and had the highest growth rate of all areas. I secured and retained the status of Top Producer in terms of program bookings. In 2019, I set a booking record for client engagements, a performance that exceeded the next-highest producer by 46%. The record still stands today. Additionally, our alumni membership grew 50% in the first year, and training delivery doubled in volume that year.In 2021, I was appointed Chief Executive Officer, tasked with leading national initiatives and leveraging partner alliances to promote our human-centered approach to talent management. In this capacity, I currently channel the efforts of 25 team members and 60 facilitators, supplying them with the vision, mission, and roadmaps to transform organizations and the influential people who run them. My first challenge was to weave the principles we teach deeper into the culture of our own organization. These principles are integral to our increasing employee retention and achieving 100% employee satisfaction ratings. From my experiences and education in psychology, I have created a playbook that other organizations can follow to shift to a Caring Workplace with higher engagement, satisfaction, and performance levels. Under my leadership, the scope of programming has expanded from one to three foundational classes, with the inclusion of continuous learning tracks. I am a content developer and master facilitator for our courses, which grow leaders in two ways: by increasing emotional intelligence and obtaining the knowledge to create environments for well-being and flourishing.
