My passion for personal growth and development has led me to focus on experiential learning as a process for cultivating leadership skills. Combining research data regarding emotional intelligence and activities from experts in the experiential field I provide strategies and opportunities for others to improve, achieve and succeed in defining and shaping a personal vision for their leadership goals.

Please contact me to help you or your organization develop leaders who are passionate, thoughtful and dedicated to purpose and mission.

Testimonials

Jolly is a mentor in every sense of the word. She helped me develop my leadership skills while providing me with opportunities to grow as an educator and discover my own brand. Without Jolly’s guidance, I wouldn’t be the college coach I am today.
