From time to time, we are all looking for new insights.
As the Founder and Principal of The Glenbrook Group, Inc, as well as an executive coach, lifelong learner and parent of teenagers, I am passionate about unlocking the full potential of leaders and teams (and humans in general) as well as sharing my insights about topics that help do just that.
In each post, you will see leadership essentials, research points, relevant professional and personal stories, tangible takeaways and reflective questions for you to marinate on (or ask yourself) in service to help you unlock your full potential.
I hope you find these meaningful and I look forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback.
Yours in practice,
Gisele
