Head of the Home Range

IBEX

I have always valued the training in decision making, problem solving, human dynamics and communication skills that we receive as part of our Human Ecology degree. Putting this training into practice to help others makes me feel proud and excited about being a Professional Home Economist. One of my proudest moments came last year when a participant in one of my Engaged Leadership workshops called me several days later and shared how the workshop changed her life. By taking her through a thought provoking process and challenging her to consider her leadership style, she was able to find a new, more satisfying direction in her life.
