A group of rhinoceros are referred to as a “crash”, which is what leading can feel like. Crash Management is for those leaders who want to collaborate, network, problem solve, and share ideas, all while feeling less alone.
Gandhi’s quote hangs on my wall, “A sign of a good leader is not how many followers you have, but how many leaders you create.” I am passionate in my belief that I can only do so much with an individual, but, if I can teach that individual what I know, they can add their own knowledge and experience and carry it forward to even more, even better. And that’s what I’d love to do with you!
It’s especially hard to develop these skills when we are part of marginalized groups because society has told us that we aren’t capable for the whole history of existence. Only recently, most of our mother’s generation, did women even gain access to manage their own money.
This program is structured from the same “mastermind” approach Stacy has taken with her own businesses. There is a private group forum for chatting, Stacy will share educational information and content, and we will come together for a monthly group Zoom.

Core Values & Types:

Meaningful Work (through knowledge and justice): doing something that piques our interest and engages our moral compass to provide passion with purpose
A recovering INTJ and classic Enneagram 8, I’ve learned that many of what I considered leadership skills (perfectionism, control, aggressiveness) did not serve me. Through working with others, I learned to see skills I admired and to reframe and adjust my practices to the values that better aligned to who I wanted to be. If I can be a rebel-tendency Challenger and find peace and balance in business, in leading a large team, and in life with four spirited teenagers, I know you can too!
Most true to who I am: I’m a Questioner. And I want to help you question what parts of your leadership style are truly serving you and where you can make adjustments. The goal is to simplify, to reduce how hard you work and to align to efficiency through empowerment and trust.
