Insights into Cultural Understanding

And Being Positively Powerful
 
Coaches CornerCoachingtransformation

You say you are transformational but are you really?

To promise your audience that they will be transformed by the renewing of their mind by you is a huge promise. If I am speaking to you, and in your heart of hearts, you know this is exactly what you want to deliver to your clients and audiences, it can happen. Just because you say it’s so, however, doesn’t make it so and saying the word doesn’t make it true. It is not wishful thinking or a smart copy point in my work. It is something that can be learned.

While I am familiar with the use of analytics to build website traffic, evaluate social media, and determine the return on investment for diversity, inclusion and other initiatives, there was a broader use of analytics that I’ve come to understand and appreciate through my colleague and friend Dr. Randal Pinkett.

Nichol Luoma, MBA, ASU Vice President, will be acknowledged on October 16th with the Positively Powerful Woman Sustainability Leadership Award.

Nichol Luoma is the Vice President of University Business Services, University Sustainability Operations Officer and Chief Procurement Officer. It was my honor to ask her to receive the 2020 Positively Powerful Woman Sustainability Leadership Award at the 12th Annual Awards Luncheon. The title Sustainability Leader took on many distinctions for me. Professionally, she strengthens and supports Arizona State University, the #1 innovation leader, as an institution and those who do business in it and with it. In a boarder sense, Nichol Luoma is also a “sustaining” family member and community leader.

Island Liaison founder Claudia Kaercher will receive the Positively Powerful Woman Nonprofit Leadership Award on October 16, 2020.

I met with Claudia Kaercher and discovered that she was also a long-time employee of Southwest Airlines, the Official Airlines of the Positively Powerful Woman Awards, and Triad West client Mountain Park Health Center was the organization she chose to take care of the pregnant Marshallese women so desperately in need of support and medical attention. Claudia Kaercher served with and was mentored for five years by Mrs. Cindy McCain, founder of the American Voluntary Medical Team (AVMT).

October 16th, the Positively Powerful Woman Entrepreneur Leadership Award will be presented to Stephanie Vasquez, owner of Fair Trade Café.

In 2006, after a life-changing trip to Costa Rica, Stephanie experienced an “a-ha” moment. Moved by the culture, love, and respect that Costa Ricans displayed for their coffee fields and land, she returned to Arizona knowing she would one day own her own socially-conscious coffee shop. Stephanie had the concept and vision in mind, now her focus was on making it a reality.
