Courageous Love with Amber Fields

Meet Kathy Miller, a female manufacturing executive responsible for a business’s profitability and all the lives that the company supports, and Shannon Karels, a high-potential female member of the leadership team. They professionally joined forces when Kathy hired Shannon to be a part of her divisional leadership team—responsible for a $75m operation with hundreds of team members at four locations in two countries. “This book is about meaningful culture change, individual and organizational learning, leadership humanity, and resilience, and organizational excellence. It documents a long, challenging, but totally inspirational account of multiple plants’ transformations, but also provides a unique window into a boss-subordinate relationship that is textured, real, and uplifting. Women in leadership (way beyond manufacturing) will be interested in this account of gifted, yet humble leadership. I am challenged to convey how much I loved the content and style of this book.” - Jane Dutton, Professor of Psychology and Business Administration Emerita, University of Michigan Social Media Info: Kathy Miller- https://www.linkedin.com/in/kathy-miller-mapp-mba-b32a2839/ Shannon Karels- https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannon-karels-00a7782/ Website: https://opsisters.com/ Connect with Amber https://www.instagram.com/amberwestfields7/

The beautiful thing about connection, which Rebecca Fleetwood Hession, who is masterful brought us together with 4 other fabulous women. Who knew we were right under each other’s noses. We live 3 minutes from one another, our kids go to school together and were friends before we were. That’s how you know it’s just a part of God’s plan. Imposter Syndrome- the persistent inability to believe that one's success is deserved or has been legitimately achieved as a result of one's own efforts or skills. To put it simply, imposter syndrome is the experience of feeling like a phony—you feel as though at any moment you are going to be found out as a fraud—like you don't belong where you are, and you only got there through dumb luck. The only way to stop feeling like an impostor is to stop thinking like an impostor. Break the silence. Separate feelings from fact. Recognize when you should feel fraudulent. Accentuate the positive. Develop a healthy response to failure and mistake-making. Right the rules. Develop a new script. Visualize success.
