Unexpected transitions and the experiences she had along the way taught GHJ’s Business Development Expert Melissa Henderson about how to provide value and service — traits she uses every day as an internal consultant in a national professional services firm.
Melissa joined Kathryn Eriksen, founder and host of the Empowered Way Podcast, for a conversation about the experiences that shaped her career, the lessons she learned along the way and what leadership has taught her.
In the podcast, Melissa shares her professional journey — from the world of publishing to now leading business development strategy within GHJ — a role at the Firm that puts her in front of key business decision makers.
The podcast also addresses the power of transferable skills, accepting change and how to drive value in your profession.
