I had the privilege of working under Amber's leadership and coaching for over a decade, and she has profoundly shaped my own approach to how I lead today. Amber’s focus on "people first" leadership taught me the importance of empathy, active listening, and prioritizing the growth of those around you. Her ability to foster collaborative synergy in every project created an environment where ideas thrived and teams flourished. She also instilled in me the value of strategic development, always encouraging a forward-thinking mindset that balanced short-term goals with long-term vision both personally and professionally. Above all, Amber’s openness and invitation to bring others into the space, creating an inclusive and empowering culture, has had a lasting impact on my leadership style. I carry these lessons with me every day in my role as Chief of Staff at Pulse Evangelism, a global non-profit based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Amber is truly a leader who empowers those around her to become leaders themselves. I am forever better because of Amber.
