Take Your Turn!: A Leadership Guide to Success for Young Women - Tonya L. Carter

Descriere

Carter, Tonya L.: - After graduating from the United States Military Academy in West Point, NY, I became an Army Officer in the Corps of Engineers. I served for 11 years on Active Duty, in the Reserves, and the National Guard both internationally and within the US. I was hired by General Motors for my leadership experience and Engineering background. However, the leadership team recognized my strength in leading and developing others and promoted me to a role in Human Resource Development. The people side of the business has always been my passion, how to help develop them, how to improve team effectiveness, how to grow managers into stronger leaders, so this role was the perfect fit for me. I returned for my Master of Training & Development with a focus on Organizational Development at Oakland University, in Rochester, MI and have now been an HR Leader for over 20 years. Along with these experiences, I've also led in other capacities as a Ministry Leader, Athletic Coach, and Sorority Leader. I believe that these experiences allow me to sow into the lives of those who need guidance or want to guide others to embark on a leadership journey.
