I wanted to take a moment to express my deep appreciation for Shaune, our remarkable chair at TEC. Having experienced three different chairs during my tenure, I can confidently say that Shaune stands out as someone truly genuine and exceptional.

1. Gentle Guidance: Shaune possesses a unique ability to steer conversations without ever coming across as pushy or confrontational. Her gentle nudges help refocus the group, ensuring productive discussions. It’s a skill that fosters collaboration and keeps us on track.

2. Humble Accomplishments: Despite her impressive past accomplishments, Shaune remains refreshingly humble. When she shares her experiences, she doesn’t seek the spotlight. Instead, she gracefully highlights lessons learned and insights gained. I often think she could write a captivating book about her adventures.

3. Genuine Care: In both one-on-one interactions and during TEC days, spending time with Shaune is an absolute pleasure. She genuinely cares about each individual’s well-being and the collective success of our group. Her commitment extends beyond mere facilitation; she actively ensures that our members contribute meaningfully.

4. Tough Decisions: Shaune’s integrity shines even brighter when she faces difficult decisions. There have been instances where she had to ask certain members to leave because they weren’t aligned with our group’s values. Despite potential impacts on her own “income,” she prioritizes the greater good. It’s a testament to her unwavering dedication.

In summary, Shaune embodies the spirit of leadership, empathy, and selflessness. Our TEC group is fortunate to have her at the helm.

Warm regards,
