‘Become the leader people love to follow and support’

Leadership coach helps young leaders define goals through vision boards
Duncan, SC –March 30, 2019 -- You’ve just landed the promotion. You will oversee a team.
Think your company will invest in your leadership development? Probably not according to
local leadership coach Elizabeth
Jende-Chevelier, who today
announced her company’s annual
Vision Board Party event set for
February 28.

“The companies aren’t providing that

training. They expect job candidates
to have the training coming in,” she
said, citing The 2015 Global Human
Capital Trends report, which found
that “. . . As the economy recovers,
companies see an accelerating
demand for leadership . . ., especially
among Millennials . . . [yet] only
seven percent have strong programs
to build Millennial leaders.”

The study looked at more than 3,300

business and human resource
managers in 106 countries.

Jende Chevelier uses a vision board as an effective tool in leadership development.

on what they want out of their career “I knew nothing about leading

“I am here to help you get stronger,
become more focused and intentional
about what you want out of your career,” she continued, opposite a huge dry erase calendar
filled with purple and red scribble in her home office in Duncan, SC. “Often people are put into
leadership roles and they feel in over their heads, having had little or no training in being an
effective leader.”

She recalls landing her first

management position.

“I had just graduated Florida State

University. The company I’d been
working for made me an offer. But I
didn’t get much direction from the
company. I knew nothing about
leading people. I was clueless about
what to do,” she said. “It was
terrifying. I tell young leaders: ‘I’ve
been there, and I can help you become
the leader people love to follow and
support’.”

A former talent manager for BMW,

Jende-Chevelier is president of EJCMove, a leadership development/ consulting company she
founded in 2004. She works with companies such as Verizon, Draexlmaier Automotive,
Greenville Tech, UPS, Joyson Quin Automotive, and Greenfield Industries.
