I’m Executive Coach Liz Myers based in Boston, MA. I have an MS in engineering from Stanford, and became a coach in 2007 just 2 years after grad school. I struggled early on with the way my manager treated me and my motivation levels each day. Further, I was passionate about personal development work and saw the effect that doing it or not doing it had at work on those around me. I wanted to make a difference in leaders’ abilities to develop themselves, be authentic, and get better results by doing so.<\/p>\n
As an introvert, I love soaking up the energy buzz at conferences (and then go be by myself to rest, of course!). With women outpacing men on achieving advanced degrees, I believe the future is in the hands of women, and especially women in tech. I look forward to connecting and sharing with amazing, talented women committed to the personal growth that gives them a strong foundation on which to use their tech prowess to make the world a better place.<\/p>\n
For many women in tech, the technical skills are the easy ones. Work on yourself. Strengthen your relationship with yourself, the constructive quality of your inner dialogue, and your commitment to balance and health – emotional, physical, spiritual.<\/p>\n
Men. I just told my husband this morning – in front of my 8 year old daughter – to quit interrupting me. Then I turned to her and said, don’t let men interrupt you.<\/p>\n
I just finished delivering a 16-week leadership masterclass called Foundations for Resilience for a client. It was powerful. I see resilience as one’s ability to successfully\u00a0respond to, move through, and integrate challenges<\/em><\/strong>. It’s not exactly about “bouncing” back. It’s much deeper than that. A key component is facing and learning from the experiences that make us uncomfortable.<\/p>\n In my workshop,\u00a0Engage Your People: Coaching Skills for Leaders<\/em>, attendees can expect an engaging, interactive experience that will give them a clear framework for how to use key coaching skills to engage and empower their people more effectively.<\/p>\n Join Liz Myers for her session \u201cEngage Your People: Coaching Skills for Leaders\u201d at Women in Tech Boston on October 20 – 21st.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Firstly, please introduce yourself I’m Executive Coach Liz Myers based in Boston, MA.
