Here’s what you might not know about me . .
Hi, I’m Corinne. I was a precocious kid. I loved words and language and books. I was outgoing. I found early career success by relying on gut instinct and strong relationship-building skills - that and the fact that I was wired to “get sh*t done.”
I once made a fool of myself by responding to an email and cc’ing everyone in the company. I’ve been let go. I was a terrible leader sometimes.
If you would have asked my 18 year old self what I was going to do, I would have told you I was going to be the next nightly news anchor after studying at the SI Newhouse School of Public Communication at Syracuse University.
I worked abroad, launching quality assurance programs in Canada, England, and Ireland.
I’ve been go-kart racing with Howard Schultz, the former CEO of Starbucks, following the kick off to bring the first-ever dual-functioning credit card to market.
And what even fewer people know...
I spent a decade caring for my parents who suffered from dementia. I lost them both within 5 years. I was burned out and numb.
I stepped away from my career at the peak of my earning potential. Priority, legacy and the value of time were never the same for me.
Most leaders believe they don’t have time to develop their teams. They struggle with demands and intense pressures to grow their businesses. But, what I’ve learned is you must be intentional if you want to make a lasting impact.
Today, I’m a leadership coach, speaker, and founder of The Gav Group. Our purpose is to help executive and commercial leaders really see the talent, people, and friction points they have around their table. We arm them with data, insights and an action plan to accelerate team performance.”
