I’m thrilled to be moderating an upcoming webinar with the International Leadership Association (ILA)!

The Energy Justice Challenge: Leadership Lessons from the Frontlines of the Caribbean Energy Transition

The Caribbean sits at the intersection of climate vulnerability and energy innovation, and the leaders driving this transition are writing a playbook the rest of the world needs to see. Join us for a candid conversation on what it really takes to lead through an energy transition for small island developing states: the tradeoffs, the wins, and the lessons that travel far beyond the region.

This ILA Leadership Perspective Webinar is FREE and open to all, proudly sponsored by Global Voices, an initiative of the ILA Leadership Development Member Community.

June 29 @ 5pm EDT

AI won’t replace great leaders.
In 2026, the leaders who win double down on what AI can’t replicate:
Human judgment. Empathy. Trust.

You can’t automate trust.
You can’t code empathy.
Your humanity is your edge. Period.
AI is the tool. You’re the leader.

Weekend reflections warrant Monday intentions.

I’ve worked with all kinds of leaders across different industries. And, the ones who struggle had lost connection to why they were leading in the first place.

When your “why” gets blurry, your decisions get heavy.

So here’s your Monday question…..

Do you know your “why” and does the way you lead every day actually reflect it?

Save this. Share it with a leader who needs it today.

Nobody hands you a manual when you step into leadership.

You figure it out, often the hard way.

Share with a leader or emerging leader who needs this today.

Stepping into management isn’t just a promotion, it’s a complete shift in how you lead, think, and show up.

In Mastering Leadership: The New Manager’s Hardest Lesson, I unpack the truth most new leaders learn the hard way, and what it actually takes to lead with intention, confidence, and impact.

If you’re navigating the transition from doing the work to leading people, this is for you.

Overcoming Challenges with Strategic Insights: A Guide for Leaders

April 1st will always have a special place in my heart ❤️.
Four years ago, after navigating immense adversity during one of the most turbulent chapters in modern history, I proudly became the first graduate of the COVID cohort at Northwest University to earn a doctorate degree, completing the journey in just two years.

My doctoral research, Exploring the Relationship of Transformational Leadership on the Effects of Employee Job Satisfaction since the Onset of the COVID-19 Pandemic Era, was an original mixed-methods grounded theory study conducted within a government organization. This work represented far more than an academic achievement, it was the product of relentless sacrifice, unwavering faith, and a deep commitment to contributing something meaningful during an era of unprecedented change.

Four years later, I still reflect on that season with deep gratitude. To whom much is given, much is required. The lesson here; just keep going.

Most people think clarity comes before confidence.
It doesn’t.

Clarity is built in the doing, in the decision to show up, speak up, and lead even when you don’t have it all figured out.

That’s being intentional. That’s intentional leadership.

Save this for the next time you’re waiting to feel ready.

Leadership Lessons from a Quiet Giant

There are people who leave a mark on the world, not through noise, but through consistent, quiet excellence. Dr. Elwin or aunty Jen Jen as we, her nieces and nephews called her, was one of those people. A trailblazer, healer, and a devoted servant to the people of Dominica, her passing leaves a void that cannot easily be filled, but her legacy offers lessons that will endure far beyond her years.

1. Aunty Jen Jen in her younger years.
2. She got a full scholarship to study medicine and was the island scholar in Dominica in the mid- 70s.
3. She was one of my inspirations to pursue a doctorate in leadership in 2020.
4. I graduated with my doctorate with distinction in 2022, one of the first to graduate with a doctorate in two years at NU.
5. Dr. Elwin in her prime.

Rest in power aunty Jen Jen 🕊️🤍

The leaders I coach share one quiet struggle.

Reacting instead of directing.
Showing up for everyone else, but losing their own voice in the process.

That’s an intention problem.

This is what Intentional leadership looks like in practice:

WHO you are ( your values, NOT your title)
WHERE you’re taking your team (vision, Not just goals)
HOW you show up when things are hard (character, Not just competence)

When this align, confidence is something you embody.
………
Save this. Share it with a leader who needs it.

What’s the hardest part of leading with intention for you?
