Think Business With Jon Dwoskin

Before becoming a certified coach and NLP practitioner, Lisa Gillette spent 25 years climbing the corporate ladder in the entertainment industry. Working in Sports Television, she had to own her expertise and communicate her talent without appearing "pushy" or labeled aggressive or bossy while being the only woman at the table. After hitting the glass ceiling, she began actively advocating, mentoring, sponsoring, and educating in support of women's career advancement. Her company, BIG SKY Coaching + Consulting, is a natural progression of her desire to guide more women into the ranks of leadership.    Connect with Lisa Gillette:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisa-gillette Website: https://bigsky.coach Instagram: @bigsky_lisa_gillette   Connect with Jon Dwoskin: Website: http://jondwoskin.com/ Twitter: @jdwoskin Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jonathan.dwoskin Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Thejondwoskinexperience/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jondwoskin/ Email: jon@jondwoskin.com
