She’s been  an entrepreneur since 1982, when she discovered that she just didn’t  function well in a bureaucratic, political organization. She consulted  to local businesses, helping managers develop the people skills they  need to become effective leaders and build strong teams. Since 1994 her  company has focused on creating assessment and development tools that  help people discover their strengths and areas for improvement. Their  latest product, ProStar Coach, is an online virtual coaching system that  helps leaders develop personal strengths and people skills. The 40  personal strengths are closely linked to the character traits that are  fundamental to the mission of the Lead Change Group and include  qualities like integrity, focus, perseverance, courage and trust.</p>
