Playing Small Moment

Bravery is one of Alexis’s highest values, so to be called out for shrinking away on stage was an eye opener for her. Suddenly she realized that she used to shrink away a lot. She wasn’t considering just how much she really brought to the table.

The Wake Up Call

While working with her clients, Alexis realized how many talented people still carried the burden of self-doubt. This prompted her to examine her own self-doubt and to realize that it wasn’t about her. She needed to be present for her clients and not worried about herself.

Style of Leadership

Alexis says her style of leadership is about setting clear direction and intention. She focuses on what she wants to create instead of what she wants to stop from happening. Additionally, sharing ‘why’ you are asking something of someone can make all the difference.

Current Leadership Challenge

Getting the word out about what her organization is doing and how it is different than other coaching companies is Alexis’ biggest business opportunity.

What Are You Excited About?

Alexis and her partners are excited about a new, visually stunning webinar series she is developing for her Positive Leader Journey program called Think pLink webinars.

What Does Your Business Support System Look Like?

Alexis has a great support system within her organization as well as at home. She says everyone around her shares her same vision and values.

Leadership Practice

Sharing her intention when she asks for something is Alexis’s best leadership practice.
