Formal qualifications became a hurdle for Lynette. She watched her friends get their degrees and she started to doubt her own abilities because she lacked that piece of paper. Her biggest strength wasn't that piece of paper, though, it was her ability to do things differently and learn as she went along. Style of Leadership Lynette leads by example and would never ask someone to do something she hasn't done herself. What Are You Excited About? Lynette trains businesses in software in ways that will be most beneficial for their company. Her newest program focuses on Microsoft Office, and teaching people the exact skills they need to be more efficient. Current Business Challenge Lynette struggles with visibility, alongside the fact that most people believe they know everything there is to know about Microsoft Office. In reality, Microsoft Office isn't usually utilized to its full potential. So, getting people to see her and understand how much they really do need her is something that challenges Lynette. Leadership Practice Understanding the process is key to Lynette being a better leader. Lynette also believes that having empathy for the effects of her trainings, especially in tech, is absolutely necessary. Advice For Younger Self "You do not need that paper, just get on with it!"
