THE ORIGIN STORY
Dr. Amber
L. Wright
For as long as I can remember, I’ve loved people and I’ve loved words. I often marvel at the fact that my life’s journey has brought me to a place where I get to bring those two loves together each day in my work.
Over the last 20 years in the field of communication, I’ve learned that it’s not enough to tell people, “You have to communicate.” As a directive, that statement isn’t helpful because what it means to communicate effectively means something different to each of us.
What we need are tools and practical strategies that help us raise our level of self-awareness and strengthen our communication abilities. My goal is to make that process easier for folks who understand it to be a necessary part of the healthy relationships they desire, both personally and professionally.
AS SEEN IN:
Speaking
I work with organizations that value their people and want to prove it by having healthy communication practices and a positive company culture.
Coaching
As an executive life coach, I work with high-achieving, public-facing women on the brink of their next level.
