Just over two years ago, I took on a role as an elected board director. At the time, I had no idea it would lead to launching my business as an Online Business Manager, or that it would reshape how I serve my clients.
Joining the IAAP Foundation Board was transformative. I donated countless hours over those two years because I believed deeply in what we were doing, from strategic planning and awarding grants to distributing scholarships to admins.
Serving at that level gave me a front row seat to what real, sustainable impact looks like. It highlighted a few major truths about growth:
The first few months working together are all about creating a solid foundation.
Within six months, you feel the momentum kick in.
Within a year, you look back and realize just how far you have come together.
I bring the same high-level strategic focus to my clients. We create a foundational action plan, take it step by step, and focus on implementation that leads to impactful growth.
As my time on the board wraps up, I am so grateful for the experience. I am excited to turn my energy towards my clients and open up space for new ones, to help them reach their next big goals.
Have you ever taken on a leadership or volunteer role that made a significant impact in how you approach your work?
I would love to hear about it in the comments.
