Meet Erika
Woman in Tech | Keynote Speaker
Leadership Coach, Consultant and Trainer
I have always been the person people confide in.
​
​But, when I stepped into leadership, I was told I was too friendly. I tried to change by distancing myself, but it felt wrong, and worse, it did not work.
That moment made me rethink everything I believed about leadership. It is not about hierarchy, it is about relationships.
When I leaned into my natural coaching style, trust grew, performance soared, and even tough conversations became moments of growth.
Now, I help leaders gain clarity and confidence so they can build high-performing teams where people actually want to show up and do their best work.
Let’s talk. Leadership should not feel this hard, and you do not have to figure it out alone.
Treat your career like a business.
