Additional Praise for Unleashing Your Inner Leader

“I clearly remember the moment… I announced a new promotion at SAS and Vickie announced the launch of her coaching business. That was when I became Vickie's first client. Vickie led me through many of the exercises that she details in this book – discovering my strengths and values, learning to delegate and ask ‘what’ questions, using my personal brand, and building my leadership legacy. Vickie tells you it won't always be easy. And yes, it took time for these concepts to become a natural part of my leadership style and to reap the rewards of choosing roles that I love; while delighting my team by ‘treating them the way they want to be treated’. This book is a must read.
