Leanne Hoagland-Smith works to unite passion and purpose to double performnce. Having a belief from her experiences in corporate, small business and education worlds that most people are working at 10% of their potential, she recognized the individuals must have opportunities for connecting their passion to their purpose to secure the desired performance results, but many lacked the necessary skills, strategies and tools.

With over 20 years in sales management and 10 years in education, Leanne understands how to unite productivity with profitability by developing a proactive working culture. Since facilitating over 500 sessions, developing and editing over 25 training programs and writing numerous articles focusing on performance improvement, she brings a results focused approach to my clients. Also, Leanne is proud to be one of the first five nationally certified facilitators of America’s Rising Stars (a Student Leadership developmental curriculum).

As The small business coach in Chicago and with a second location in Indianapolis, IN, my clients have easily doubled their performance. Since our greatest resource is our young people, I am now working with large urban schools to generate the same results.
