Meet Maria
Maxwell Leadership Certified Team Member
Project Management Professional
I help leaders with expanding responsibilities grow into the leader their next level requires.
As expectations rise, leadership becomes less about having the answers and more about effectively navigating complexity, building trust, making difficult decisions, and communicating in ways that create clarity for others.
Through coaching, speaking, and leadership workshops, I help leaders recognize the patterns that no longer serve them, communicate more effectively, and develop the confidence, clarity, courage, and conviction they need to lead at the next level.
After more than 35 years of Air Force service as both a pilot and senior leader, I've learned that leadership has a way of revisiting the same lessons as responsibility grows.
The challenge isn't usually learning something completely new.
It's recognizing when yesterday's strengths need today's adjustments.
Clients often tell me I help them see connections they hadn't considered and ask questions that challenge assumptions without creating defensiveness.
Together, we work to better understand how others experience their leadership, navigate difficult conversations with greater confidence, and bring clarity to situations that feel complicated or high-stakes.
Organizations and leaders engage with me through:
• Coaching leaders through expanding responsibilities
• Leadership growth workshops
• Team communication & DISC assessments
• Lunch & Learns for emerging and experienced leaders
• Keynote speaking and facilitated discussions
If you're stepping into greater responsibility and want to lead at the next level with more confidence, clarity, courage and conviction, let’s connect.
