Thirty-five years of experience as a human resources executive and strategic business leader in the Fortune 100 arena has taught me that corporate life is not for the faint of heart.

You must be tough, tenacious, passionate, authentic, and skilled at dealing with people. Mergers of equals, bankruptcies, hostile takeovers, restructuring, international business start-ups, acquisitions, divestitures, downsizing - all are a part of today's global business environment. If you want to succeed, there are action steps you can take to become a top performer now.

Stepping Up - 12 Ways to Rev Up, Revitalize, or Renew Your Career, my newest book, is committed to helping you reach your full professional potential. Whether you're just starting out, making a move in your current organization, or changing positions entirely, these guidelines will lead you to career success.

The themes you will read about are echoed in my consulting practice, seminars, and media interviews. Why? Because they are practical, proven steps that lead not only to professional success but to a life/work balance that is sustainable long term.

I invite you to explore this website further. Read my biography and evaluate my experience as a trusted advisor, worthy confidant, and business practitioner. Then let's see how we can work together to build success.
