Close Up Radio Spotlights Leadership Coach and Author Maggie Huffman

SONOMA, CA - During the 25-years Maggie Huffman was busy building two substantial careers in male-dominated industries (winemaking and information technology), the business world was transforming, becoming more diverse, and welcoming multiple viewpoints into decision-making. So, when Maggie officially became a coach in 2014, it was a boost for all those women who wanted to move into leadership but who may not have had confidence that their experience, skills and knowledge were enough. Maggie, who already had a master’s degree that included counseling, and had been building and inspiring teams all along, then pursued several new certifications. Since becoming a certified coach, she’s helped countless women to reflect, peel away layers, and discover their hidden talents and worth.

Maggie created a coaching program to help people, particularly women, become new or more effective leaders. The process, named Your Leadership Color Palette, guides clients to assess, close gaps, gain clarity and confidence, and become the leader they aspire to be. This program evolved from a book she published, and one of four she wrote on personal development subjects, The Rainbow Onion: The Transformative Power of Color Thinking. Maggie is currently working on a card deck for step-by-step execution of this incredible color-based development process.

Maggie stresses that women are often more critical of themselves and their skill sets, because they were socialized to be that way. She challenges women to re-examine their skills and leadership abilities.

Close Up Radio will feature Maggie Huffman in an interview with Jim Masterson Thursday, June 2nd at 12pm Eastern
