SCHOLARSHIP & SERVICE
Alongside my work with leaders and organizations, I remain actively engaged in scholarship, writing, and volunteer service. These commitments reflect a long-standing belief that leadership practice is strengthened by inquiry, contribution, and engagement beyond one’s professional role.
Scholarship
As a researcher and writer, I continue to explore questions of leadership, power, responsibility, and development across the lifespan. Writing provides a disciplined way to test ideas, deepen understanding, and contribute to the broader leadership conversation. This work informs my practice while also standing on its own as an expression of ongoing curiosity and responsibility to the field.
Publications
I am an active contributor to leadership scholarship and practice. My speaking and writings reflect long-standing interests in leadership, power, responsibility, and development across the lifespan. I have spoken, written, and presented on leadership and power, including:
How Collaborative Leaders Construct Power: A New Leadership Discourse
Inclusive Leadership and Power Chapter in the International Leadership Association’s 2023 edited book, Inclusive Leadership: Equity and Belonging in our Communities
The Leaders as Coach: Leading for Performance with Prescence and Practice in the Lead for Growth’s 2026 book LEAD for Growth: Inspiring Stories and Practical Tools for Leaders Coaching Their Teams to the Next Level (in republication).
Service
I am also deeply committed to volunteer service and community involvement. Since my teenage years, I have served in a range of roles, from hands-on contribution to board chair. This work keeps me grounded in the realities of collective effort, stewardship, and service, and reinforces my belief that leadership is ultimately exercised in service of others.
Together, these strands shape how I approach my work and how I understand leadership itself. They reflect the values that guide my practice: care for people, responsibility in the use of authority, respect for the dignity of every person, and a belief that leadership carries obligations not only to immediate outcomes but also to the long-term well-being of the organizations, communities, and individuals that leaders serve.
