My early experience of leadership was uninspiring. It was very task-focused and short on empathy. This held me back until I learned more, experienced something different, and began my own leadership journey.

This includes leading a team of career advisers in both private and public sectors and leading a team of volunteers in a public speaking organization. I view leadership as an opportunity to collaborate with a group of people and motivate them to achieve a common goal. It is not about a position, rank, or title.
