Almost ten years ago she launched a consulting and motivational speaking business called Courtside Leadership, in the last couple weeks published her first book, Beyond the Talent: Profile of a Winning Team, and now she’s coming down the stretch with a business that’s been quite a few years in the making, Find My Team, LLC.
