Ashauna

Dr. Ashauna Harris

Mentor. Educator. Lifelong Student.

Dr. Ashauna Harris may be the principal of a high-needs middle school, but she willingly adopted the role of student with CCL. As an educator, she sees herself as a mentor and role model for both her teachers and her students, an effort that often left her feeling stretched thin and not able to give either the attention they deserved.

Dan

Dan Eckert

Builder. Visionary. Never Gives Up.

In the early 2000s, Dan Eckert was flying high as president and COO of a fast-growing “dot-com” business. The future looked bright — until the market crashed. After years of painstaking survival, a merger rescued the business. Dan found himself in a new leadership role at a new company, and in need of guidance on how to move forward as a leader in this next phase of his career.

Andrea

Andrea Pilon Artman

Advocate. Entrepreneur. Lives Authentically.

Andrea Pilon Artman came to CCL hoping to improve her leadership skills. But she left with so much more than that — a whole new perspective on who she is. The Looking Glass® Experience simulation in the Leading for Organizational Impact program she attended was designed to reveal each person’s true leadership characteristics. Andrea was surprised to learn that her heart wasn’t in the career path she’d been pursuing. With the support and encouragement of her group, she shed the mask she felt she’d been wearing and let her true self show.
