Prior to starting
her business, Donna worked at Clairol for over 15 years.
Because of her decision to "just get serious" about
continuing her education
and excelling at her work, she achieved several remarkable
accomplishments including: 1) Graduating from college with top
honors while working full-time as an administrative assistant;
2) Being the first administrative assistant promoted into a
management-level marketing position at Clairol; 3) Receiving
numerous individual and team awards and being recognized as one of
the company’s experts on field-based analysis and category
management.
After Donna left
Clairol in 2002, she began to pursue her dream of helping businesses
develop their employees and helping individuals become more
successful. A partial list of her corporate and governmental
clients include: The City of Atlanta, The Coca-Cola Company, Cox
Enterprises, The Department of Labor, U.S. Small Business
Administration, G.E. Consumer Finance and Centers for Disease
Control (CDC).
For several women's organizations,
Donna is one of their favorite speakers because she understands the challenges many women face having
encountered them herself. She has worked with the following organizations and events:
International Association of Administrative Professionals,
American Business Women’s
Association,
Dress for Success, Clemson
University’s Conference for Women, SCORE Conference For Women and
Coca Cola’s Women Leadership Conference.
To help individuals
gain further knowledge and stay motivated beyond her training programs and
speeches, Donna co-authored several books with other training
experts like herself. The 303 Solutions series includes
“quick read” books on time management, goal achievement, leadership,
communication, and other topics. Also, along with Les Brown and
Wally “Famous” Amos, Donna is one of nine authors featured in The
