Our Values
At GSSPS, I ensure that everyone feels safe and welcome in our organization by promoting a culture of respect and inclusivity. Each member of our team has equal opportunity for career development and advancement, regardless of their background or identity. I hold myself and others accountable for creating and maintaining an inclusive and equitable company.
At GSSPS, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of my team, while also fostering a sense of compassion, empathy, and understanding. I focus on creating policies and practices that promote work-life balance such as encouraging staff to take breaks throughout the day, to take time off when needed, and by offering flexible work arrangements.
I value honesty and encourage open communication and feedback. I stand firm in my philosophy that everyone's needs matter! My goal is to continually create a culture where team members feel safe to share their thoughts and concerns, and feel heard and understood when they do. I offer a safe space where I actively listen to and address my team member’s concerns and needs, and in our organization we recognize and celebrate everyone's accomplishments.
I value personal development and continuing education at GSSPS. I prioritize my team's mental health and provide professional development to support them in this area. As the owner, I strive to lead by example with presence, empathy and compassion. I am continually learning and growing in the field of speech pathology and personal development.
