Have a Positive Impact During Uncertain Times
Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement.
Golda Meir
There are two related concepts that drive the content of this site. The first is the fact that individuals can have a Positive Impact through who they are as a person and the particular actions that they take. The second is that there are Common Good employers and jobs through which people’s lives are impacted in a positive way.
Does that preclude you from gaining value from this site if neither of those related concepts are of interest to you. Absolutely Not!
As a career coach, leadership development consultant, motivational speaker, and writer I have spent my whole career helping thousands of individuals on six continents to lead lives with which they are satisfied and energized. The kind of work they were looking to do and/or the type of environment in which they wanted to work has not mattered. I have helped individuals move toward impactful jobs in non-profit, for-profit, and educational organizations.
I awakened to the cry that people have the power to redeem the work of fools.

100% of the revenue from the sale of my 3 books goes to the themes of those books: lessening instances of sexual assault and bullying (Dawn of Hope), lessening deaths by tobacco (Dawn of the Tobacco Wars), and increasing instances of positive impact (Have a Positive Impact During Uncertain Times).
I wish you the best in your exploration.

There is no passion to be found in playing small – in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.
