Meet the Community Leader...
I'm Leigh Ann Rodgers, M.Ed., CPF, CVF, and the founder of Better Teams and FORWARD. The Better Teams Community - FORWARD provides us with a forum to share our passions, learn, and network with leaders, coaches, trainers, and facilitators around the world.
During more than 20 years working as a team-building specialist, trainer, and leadership coach with clients including Mars, SunTrust, National Geographic, Safe-Guard, AARP, Univision, Centers for Disease Control (CDC), and Custom Ink, I've hustled and spent countless hours finding the right resources to support leaders and teams. Over the years I've learned how it's faster and more fun to learn in community with other like-minded professionals.
As a learner and a connector, it lights me up to bring together professionals who all serve teams in different ways. Every member of FORWARD is talented, warm, and generous. So, we have cultivated a friendly, supportive community that provides a place to network, share best practices, and experiment with how we facilitate teams in a modern, changing world.
You are invited to grow FORWARD with us!
