Q: Tell us about yourself.
I am passionate about helping people understand people (themselves included) to better enrich teamwork and overall work satisfaction. In this vain, I served as a trainer and coach of Realtors around the country and have recently branched out into other industries. Human behavior is fascinating and we could all do better by learning about each other’s personality differences, tendencies, and habits to thrive together.
Q: What will you be speaking about at DisruptHR?
A: The Working Genius Assessment.
Q: Why are you passionate about this topic?
A: Personality assessments are an attempt to codify human behavior/ to give us operation manuals for how to work together well. The working genius assessment is my favorite of all the personality assessments that can help people find fulfillment at work and better work together as a team.
Q: What general business advice do you have for readers out there?
A: Regardless of industry, we work with people and we work with ourselves. How much time a week do you spend studying human behavior and how much time a week do you spend studying your own behavior? We all should set aside some time studying these every single week.
Q: Can you share a specific experience that has significantly shaped your career?
A: The first time I presented a training topic outside of the real estate industry confirmed to me that so much of what we deal with in our professional lives are not industry specific problems but universal human problems.
Q: How do you stay motivated and inspired in your professional journey?
A: Do what fascinates you. Do what makes you feel fulfilled. Do what you find to be fun. If you can align what you do with what you deeply find passion in, motivation and inspiration BUSINESS COACH, HATCH COACHING are easy to capture.
Q: What do you think are the key traits of successful leaders today?
A: Leaders make time for their people consistently to maintain healthy relationships. Leaders seek feedback and critique regularly. Leaders have a clearly defined compass that guides their decision-making and provides consistent clarity to other team members.
Q: How do you handle setbacks and challenges in your career?
A: I accept that no one bats a perfect 100%. Failure is built into the equation. A win is good. A loss is second place (at least you have clarity). The worst option is never knowing because you didn’t try at all (that’s terrible ambiguity/ uncertainty).
