Both Judy and her guest Faswilla Sampson agree, investing in a personal development coach is one of the best things you can do to achieve success. Faswilla shares her story of being a single mother, frustrated by a boss who told her she wasn’t getting a raise or a big bonus. At the time, Faswilla thought investing in a business coach wasn’t for her, but she took the plunge. Not only did she get the bonus, but she also got a promotion. Faswilla and Judy also talked about getting male CEOs to see the potential of their female workforce and Faswilla’s new book The Leadership Development Tool Kit: Redesigning Your Template to Drive Individual and Organizational Change.
