Today I have the pleasure of speaking with Dorothy Patrick. Dorothy is more than just the CEO of her Organization, SPARX International, she is a maverick in the field of intuition. What does that mean?  It means that Dorothy understands leadership and the purpose of learning from leaders in business. Her organization specializes in leadership and culture strategy. In this discussion, we review the urgent need for a reboot of leadership during our current environment. Dorothy shares her ideas and discusses our need to re-review cultural values within our organizations and we need to understand how to keep those we need close to ensure that our leaders have the tools they need to keep their businesses thriving. Her philosophy, "Organizations that flourish recognize, value and invest in the quality of the employee experience that their company offers. A company flourishes when employees, at all levels of an organization, are happy and engaged. We work alongside of our clients; helping them align their vision and culture creating an environment conducive to long-term success. We produce extraordinary results." -SPARX International For more information: Contact Dorothy on LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/cultureispriorityone/ or visit her website at https://www.sparxinternational.com/

Today I have the pleasure of interviewing, Liz Wooten-Reschke, MPA, Certified Dare to Lead(TM) Facilitator, Certified Governance Trainer and President/CEO & Lead Consultant for Connect For More. For additional resources from Connect For More, visit their website at Resources from Connect For More. Liz and I discuss Brene' Brown's focus on "courage" in her new book, Dare to Lead. Liz also shares with us ideas leaders can use to start engaging their followers in "tough conversations." From Liz..."With over 20 years of service in the nonprofit sector as staff, volunteer, board leader and now consultant, we have gained specific insight into the nonprofit sector–a 360 degree view, if you will, of organizational functionality and how a nonprofit board can affect (positively or negatively) those efforts to improve the community through their mission work. I strongly believe nonprofit organizations have the skills and abilities and heart to improve the community. As a community member and as a person. This coming from a single mother, caregiver, and business owner."
