I am Joseph Rios and I believe that leadership is an expression of our values. Our values inform our thoughts and actions and, when aligned, can have a very powerful effect on our communities. My work is grounded in over 20 years of practice in leadership and student development and is informed by young adult development and learning theories.
By exploring our personal and shared values, we have the opportunity to create a community that showcases it values – of care, inclusion, love, family, excellence – and works to include others in these values. I want to show you how you can put your leadership into action and showcase the best of your values to others.
This can be through training, personalized workshops, or one-on-one coaching. In whatever format is best for you, I want to be part of your success and witness the expression of your leadership and values in action.
