Her key focus is the growth of conscious, responsible leadership shaping business as a force for good in the world. She has a strong desire to promote a responsible and sustainable business that is profit-driven as well as purpose-driven, and she is particularly interested in how leaders develop their capacities to think in more complex and inclusive ways while bringing their hearts to what they do. Listen in as we talk about how COVID has enlightened consciousness as individuals and leaders, understanding connections, and the reality of being conscious leaders working from home.

• Conscious leadership is being aware of ourselves and our values and how it transfers to our relationship with others and work.
