"You've Heard of Fundamentalism.  How About Nancyism?"
Picture
"If you can't get people to follow you, it doesn't matter what your title is.  You need to be the kind of leader people want to work with, not have to work with.  My clients become the leaders that others want to follow"

​Nancy Steiger uses, what she calls, "Nancyisms" to inspire change in the next generation of leaders through leadership development, personal career development, mission, vision and values development.  "In my opinion, my generation of leaders hasn't done a great job of empowering the next generation for what's ahead of them,"  she says.  "I try to inspire the next generation with the knowledge, skills, and experience to tackle the challenging problems that lay in front of them."
