Success = Paula LeDuc 

The August 13 issue of the San Francisco Chronicle featured a culinary gold mine of Bay Area's visionary chefs. Among such world class innovators as Alice Waters and Thomas Keller  was Paula LeDuc. With 28 years of success in fine catering, Paula continues to shine as an savvy business woman and astute leader. Like several famous Silicon Valley legends, she started her business out of her home. With entrepreneurial verve she grew her business - moving it 3 times into larger facilities. Now Paula LeDuc Fine Catering employs 60 full-time workers and hundreds of part-time support staff. Whether the event is a picnic for 3,000 at LucasArts, a lunch for British royals at the Ferry Building, or an elegant cocktail party at Tiffany, the food and its presentation is always an unforgettably delectable experience.

Thank You, Paula!

Paula LeDue gifted me the title Consciousness Coach.

Inspired Action

Start your day, or the next moment, by asking yourself a question or two that ignites your leadership. What is one actionable step I could take that would leverage what I know and do best? What do I need to assist me in dealing with my most critical -  not urgent - leadership priorities?

Take a Moment

Don't try to answer these questions right away. Let them just BE for a second or two while you focus on something that inspires you. Something that has nothing to do with your pressure-cooker day. This 1-minute practice clears and recharges your circuits. It makes it easier for you to see solutions and take inspired action. 

Sunny Inspiration
