Maria's PHilosophy

We all have a career story (whether we know it or not). Your job titles, employers, and accomplishments do not a story make!

During my corporate HR career, I observed many talented executives often taking a back seat while others drove them to their next professional destination.

I asked: Why outsource your most important professional decisions to a manager or a predetermined corporate structure? Why not lead an Intentionally Directed Career®?

I founded Leader Assist to guide mid-career professionals to be intentional about their executive presence and career story, by better understanding themselves, their core values, individual strengths and their future goals. Together we develop and implement a customized approach that will boost their confidence, as well as their professional impact.

Every career path has its own unique twists and turns. It's one of the things that makes for an interesting life. You're not necessarily on a wrong path, but you may be moving in circles or stuck, rather than consistently propelling your career forward in a rewarding and powerful way.

If you're ready to convert your career mindset from one that is based on what's available--to one that is intentionally directed--let's work together so you can become the leader of your own career.
