TITLE: ASSOCIATION MANAGER,<br />

TEAM: ENERGIZER BUNNY<br />

<strong>Leaders</strong>hip quote that inspires me:<br />

“Take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it<br />

frankly, and try another. But by all means, try<br />

something.”<br />

My biggest “aha” or impact moment:<br />

The biggest impact from this program has been<br />

how I have been able to flex and use DISC to<br />

work and understand different personalities,<br />

styles <strong>of</strong> leadership, and communication, etc.<br />

This challenged or stretched me:<br />

To dig deep and really dive into who I am as a person and what things I am<br />

capable <strong>of</strong> or need improvement on.<br />

I have put this insight/concept into practice:<br />

DISC has been essential for me in my everyday life. It has really helped me<br />

figure out how to best communicate with my Boards and Homeowners I<br />

work with and reach results. This has made for more effective meetings<br />

and conversations which overall positively impact the community. DISC has<br />

also helped me with understanding coworkers, family, and friends as I have<br />

learned to appreciate the different styles and not get frustrated if something<br />

was not coming across to me clearly. Overall, DISC has helped me become<br />

even more patient and determined to learn & adapt to each style.<br />
