#99: Becky Magnotta: The Magic in Metaphors!

Becky Magnotta is a leadership coach that finds the magic in metaphors – my coaching; think of it like a three-legged stool! – and you’ll never look at another three-legged stool in the same way again; it’s the triad that works!! Becky isn’t afraid to give feedback, even the kind that could get you fired, and recognises there is a gift in everything but sometimes gifts come in ugly packages! As a concert pianist, Becky brings the gift of curiosity, joy and awe in her ability to listen and recognise patterns in people.
Homestead Coaching and Consulting, LLC., builds on a family legacy of great leadership, focused on the notion that everybody deserves a great place to work, building others through accountability and feedback.
