“As a non-profit founder and leader, I learned firsthand the tension between wanting to dream and cast vision while at the same time experiencing the intense struggle to develop and execute strategic planning. That’s why I formed Lean On Me – to come alongside leaders and see them empowered to achieve more because they were surrounded by professionals who have walked in their shoes and can help them do the work.”
