Meet Casey.
Who Am I?
I was a bit lost in my twenties. After struggling in high school, I jumped into college because I thought it was the expected next step. I started and stopped several times. The simple truth is that I wasn't ready. I wandered from job to job, never really finding where I belonged. I couldn't escape the feeling that I wasn't living up to my potential. Motivated by a sense of patriotism and a desire to improve my life, I joined the United States Air Force.
My very first supervisor wrote on a feedback form that I was "a leader among his peers." I had never been called a leader before. In all honesty, I'm not sure I understood what the word meant. But at that very moment, my lifelong examination of supervising and leading others began.
​
I would eventually obtain a graduate degree in the study of leadership. Along the way, I would supervise individuals in large and small teams, in federal and state government, and inside of for-profit and non-profit sectors. I found that succeeding as a supervisor requires the ability to perform skills related to both management and leadership. I learned that supervisors impact the lives of others every single day. I also found that supervisors are oftentimes the one group of individuals inside the organizational environment that receives the least amount of development and training.
​
I've had good supervisors, and I've experienced bad. The good ones I'll never forget, and the bad ones, well I suppose I'll never forget. I've made mistakes as a supervisor, and I've excelled. I'm here to share what I've learned with you and help you find success as a supervisor.
