With Thelma PutzelIn today’s corporate environment, if you were to ask the average employee, "Would you stay if you won the lottery?," most employees would likely respond with a resounding “NO”.  For many people, the jobs we hold in the corporate setting today are all about the paycheck and not a whole lot about passion or purpose in our lives. We show up each day, held by the golden handcuffs we call a salary and constantly complain how weekends and vacations are too short.  Thelma’s intention is to change this unfulfilling sentiment for those who want more out of life and feel ‘stuck’ in the corporate world. Over 30 years in the corporate environment, Thelma built a diverse career portfolio working for a major consulting firm, a financial institution, and leading high-tech software companies as an individual contributor, manager and mentor. Working with fast paced, high-tech companies such as HP/EDS, Oracle, and Informatica, Thelma figured out for herself what it meant to have work-life balance and a meaningful connection to her work to live her best life on her terms. She has developed strategic ways to overcome the dis-empowering thoughts of “I should”, “I have to”, and “I’m supposed to” and now moves through life with inspiration and authenticity. Thelma helps professionals who want to want to “work smarter, not harder” and be high performers while achieving their own work-life balance. Thelma's passion is to share her wealth of knowledge and provide detailed insights, strategies, and tools to those who don’t know where to start, or how to connect to what she calls their Genius Within.
