Welcome to MY real life!
So many bloggers today are stay-at-home, homeschooling moms, who I love, but that is not my story. Even though I now mostly do consulting work, I did spend twenty-five years in corporate America. I went from being an Executive Assistant to a VP to being a Corporate Human Resources Manager. To connect with me and see my full professional profile, go here.
All of this, while marrying, having kids, divorcing and marrying again. I’ve had some wonderful moments and horrible moments both personally and professionally. And, I have learned a lot through it all. So much so, that I want to share it.
You see, I am a teacher, and if I know something, I want to teach it. I just can’t help myself. The reason I began The Chronicles was for two reasons; I wanted to share some parenting insights from the perspective of a working mom and I also want to share some of my HR/Safety programs. You may think the latter reason is strange for a Christian blog, but, hey, there are Christian working women out there that might enjoy this monthly series.
Also, most posts will come with a free PowerPoint or document that can be used for training or personal/professional use. It’s my gift to you working girls!
The Chronicles are typically published the first Friday of every month. I hope you look for it and share it with your working buddies!
