I’ll help you identify your core strengths and competencies, and develop strategies to apply them more effectively in your career.

Together, we’ll explore how your unique abilities can address real needs in the marketplace and society, creating lasting value.
What You Can Be Paid For
Ensuring your career choices are financially sustainable allows you to continue doing meaningful work over the long term.
I’ll help you identify viable career paths and strategies to monetize your skills and passions effectively in today’s market.
Tao Leadership Principles
Tao leadership draws from ancient Eastern philosophy, emphasizing balance, natural flow, and authentic presence. These principles complement the Ikigai framework by focusing on how you lead and interact with others.
Key Tao leadership principles include:
- Wu Wei (Non-Forcing): Leading through natural action rather than forced control, allowing situations and people to develop organically.
- Balance of Opposites: Embracing both analytical and intuitive thinking, strength and flexibility, action and reflection.
- Simplicity: Focusing on what’s essential and removing unnecessary complexity from work and leadership.
- Leading by Example: Demonstrating values and expectations through personal conduct rather than directives.
