In My Client's Own Words...
It is rare to find a leader who combines professionalism with such a personal and approachable demeanor...
I have had the privilege of witnessing Ann’s leadership firsthand, when we worked together at Blue Cross Blue Shield of South Carolina, and the trainings I have attended with Designing GRACE. Ann demonstrates exceptional vision, integrity, and the ability to motivate and empower those around her. As long time business partners, in a corporate environment, I have watched her commitment to fostering collaboration and innovation that has consistently led to Ann’s outstanding results. What sets her apart, as a leader, is the genuine care and support she provides to others. She is always encouraging and creates an all-inclusive environment, safe and in unison. It is rare to find a leader who combines professionalism with such a personal and approachable demeanor. If you are looking for someone who leads with purpose and makes a positive impact then Ann is unparalleled and I highly recommend her.

The 6 types of Working Genius
The 6 types of Working Genius is a new model that helps people discover their natural gifts and thrive in their work and life. When people are able to better understand the types of work that bring them more energy and fulfillment and avoid work that leads to frustration and failure, they can be more self-aware, more productive and more successful.
Working Genius identifies the six fundamental activities that are required for any type of work and provides a simple framework for how work gets done. Too many people feel frustrated, underutilized or misunderstood at work. Far too many teams experience failure, feel stuck or are confused because they don’t know how to tap into the people around them. Working Genius is changing the way people are thinking about their work and teams, and is leading to more dignified, fulfilled and successful work.
