Finding Your Leadership Footing: A.C.C.E.S.S. Tools and Techniques for Leaders
What if the secret to becoming a confident, resilient leader was as simple—and as challenging—as learning to dance?
In this transformative book, Elizabeth “Dr. E” Carter, PhD invites you on a personal and professional journey of discovery. After experiencing the profound loss of her parents, she found healing and renewal in the unlikeliest of places: a ballroom dance studio.
Drawing powerful parallels between the grace of dance and the demands of leadership, Dr. E. uncovers how to regain balance, adapt to change, and move with confidence—even when life feels out of step.
Using the A.C.C.E.S.S. framework (Activities Critical to Continuous Evolution, Success, and Self-Mastery), Dr. E. shares essential tools and techniques to help leaders navigate the complexities of corporate life while staying true to themselves.

Whether you’re stepping into leadership for the first time or refining your rhythm as a seasoned leader, Finding Your Leadership Footing offers actionable insights and inspiring stories to help you lead with purpose, poise, and impact.
This book will guide you in evolving into the leader you’re meant to be, no matter where you are in your leadership journey.
