I’m Theresa LaPlaca. I have had a successful 38-year career in finance and banking, and chose to take on my own business for executive presence and coaching to help young professionals and middle managers, like you, advance your career just as I have done in my tenure. In my time as a C-Suite Executive, I had seen many professionals overlooked for career advancement because their leaders were afraid to elevate them and lose talent in that role. I know how discouraging and frustrating that is for someone at your level who wants to advance their career. In fact, I know this story all too well... because I lived it. I experienced a lot of sacrifice and obstacles to move from entry-level bank teller all the way up to C-Suite Executive. Were it not for a network of fantastic mentors and coaches who challenged me to speak up for myself and get to that next level, I do not know if I would have been as successful as I became. So let's get to it. You know you excel at your job and you want to move to the next level. That's what brought you here today, right? So, why is it so hard for your leader to see you in another role? Do you have a good succession plan? Does your leader know you are eager to move forward? Do you have a strong team, and are they visible to your leader? Perhaps these are questions you are already asking yourself, but you feel stuck... you don't know how to move to the next level... and you're running out of STEAM. That is where my STEAM Program will help. Through my program, I will help you: *Build your confidence in yourself and your team *Set professional goals and milestones to help you reach YOUR definition of success *Plan your succession as you move onto the next level I have been in your shoes before, and I know the steps you need to take to advance your career. So let's achieve success, together.
