One of my biggest points of growth as a leader has been understanding my mindset regarding professional titles. Growing up, hard work and showing up meant more than a title on a resume. But 10 years after opening my nonprofit, I now understand that to some, titles hold value. Some see titles as motivation, an end goal. With this understanding, I have made it a point to create a culture of teamwork to push us forward. I want my people to understand they have value and can lead, regardless of a title. I don’t want to create managers and supervisors. I want to create influencers.
Hey, there. If you are new to my podcast, I’m Amanda and through my social media platform, Pieces of Me, I share my journey of being a sibling to someone with a rare disability, a founder and director of a nonprofit serving those with intellectual disabilities, and finding balance as a working mom, wife, and business leader.
Facebook or Instagram is a great way to connect with me! Just search @piecesofmebyamanda
– I would love to hear from you!
Check out my children’s book, Owen the Wonderer, that helps teach kids about differences and acceptance. And my Ebook that helps talks about the many emotions of being a sibling to someone with an intellectual disability.
Want to connect and grow with me? Message me on Facebook and ask to be a part of one of my exclusive community groups (or BOTH!). I also offer coaching sessions for families impacted by disabilities, for women wanting to align their purpose or for those interested in launching their own nonprofit.
Don’t know where to start but want to know more? Just email me! Piecesofmebyamanda@gmail.com
