Hi Curious Reader,

I’m Monica L’Tainen and after 30 years in the biotech/pharmaceutical industry, I was ready to chart a new course. I had a great ride and look back on my corporate past with pride and gratitude. I worked on four teams (sales, training, marketing, and scientific affairs) in four cities across the U.S. I knew my experience was unique, as it got more difficult over the years to crossover from commercial to scientific affairs due to changing regulations. My background allowed me to support my colleagues when communication gaps occurred between departments with seemingly conflicting objectives. I liked making a difference with my colleagues and this planted the seed for my next chapter.

At a leadership summit, I learned a simple model that helped me explore my internal world and how I make decisions when stressed. I found I sometimes regretted the impulsive actions and short-sighted decisions that I made. Having a map for understanding how to de-escalate emotions and step back paid off enormously in my life.

This newfound power and insight energized both my work and personal life. Although it was a difficult decision to leave my career of 30 years, I decided to take the leap and chart a new course. I completed a coach certification program and now share this powerful model with clients.

Join me and let’s chart a new course together!

Monica
