Program Spotlight: Doing the Work
During our recent reunion and celebration for the holistic leadership program, participants were asked to share how they are using integrative leadership in their field by answering the question: How are you doing the work?
I am doing the work by being a career counselor. I love to help the students that I’m working with identify their strengths, interests and values and make connections with them so that they can bring those skills to the world. More than anything I feel that I’m a relationship builder.
