If you are looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable professional to help train your staff in a variety of business situations that can support your bottom line while also providing an employee benefit, I am here to support you and your business.
Having been in Corporate America for 30 years in managerial and leadership roles, I know first-hand the importance of employee morale and the power of a productive environment to a company's finances, reputation, and culture.
Now that I am a business owner of a coaching and hypnosis company, I know full well the power of a productive mindset and how to help individuals connect with the positive and productive part of their mind rather than their negative and unproductive part of their mind.
My 30 years of corporate managerial and leadership experience supports my expertise with self-leadership, personal organization, attention management, life planning, and strategic goal-execution.
Before I ventured into my own business, I held leadership positions at Nissan Forklift, the American Academy of Dermatology, and IDEAL Industries. In these positions, I led the national effort to set a Guinness World Record for the most skin cancer screenings in a single day; served on an advisory panel with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; Co-Chaired the National Council on Skin Cancer Prevention; amplified local giving by increasing participation by 132% and employee donations by 127%; served as the Executive Director for the IDEAL Industries Foundation as well as Family Governance Manager for IDEAL, a 5th generation family owned business.
A brief introduction to me and my corporate background
I have worked with a variety of businesses, ranging from family-owned businesses to multi-million dollar corporations to small service-based businesses to individuals desiring to be an entrepreneur.
The work has varied, and has included:
1. Organizing and facilitating meetings
2. Creating and training a mentorship program
3. Identifying business values and assisting with writing ads and marketing materials, interview questions, and performance reviews to ensure a values-fit
4. Strategy and execution on how to begin a business and grow a business
5. Creating and training a peer recovery coach program for an addiction recovery center
I have also been a keynote presenter at several different organizations, including:
1. A non-profit's annual meeting immediately following the pandemic to not only celebrate and honor their work but also to encourage continued focus and care
2. A non-profit's retreat for women to set the stage for a weekend of rebuilding and resetting themselves for personal growth
3. Two annual conferences among my peers
4. Two separate meetings for non-profits about the importance of self-care to prevent burnout when working with a busy population

Connie did a great job providing a keynote address and learning opportunity for our region's funded partner kick off meeting. Her words were impactful and the message was exactly what we hoped for -appreciation for the past year's work and accomplishments and inspirational and motivational for the year ahead. Highly recommend!

Connie is the only person who could fill the role of life coach in my life with such empowerment, warmhearted caring and ease. I own a successful small business and with her guidance for the past two years I have been able to release past behavior and thought patterns that were pain inflicting....additionally, she strategizes with me on implementing life habits and skills that allow me to continually follow my own dreams and happiness through a business mindset and a personal perspective.
