HER STORY

Serene has a way of making a room settle around her. She arrives, takes in the people, the conversation, the details everyone else has missed, and somewhere along the way things begin moving in the direction she had in mind. She rarely has to ask twice.

​

She notices what people wear, what they leave unsaid, who has stopped speaking, who is trying too hard to be heard. She remembers conversations long after everyone else has forgotten them, and has a habit of bringing up some small detail at exactly the right moment.

​

People are often surprised by her. She has learned to recognise the moment it happens, the brief pause when someone realises she is the person who has been running the room all along. She finds it mildly amusing. She lets them catch up.

THE SHADOW SIDE

Serene sometimes runs so fast that she leaves people behind without noticing. She is generous with her capability and less generous with her time, which are not always the same currency. The people closest to her know the difference between being led by her and being seen by her. She is working on closing that gap.
