Donna Marie Johnson provides leadership development and business consulting services nationally to leaders who feel a resonance with the messages she shares. She has been serving entrepreneurs -- mostly women leaders in the Atlanta Metro region -- since 1996. After learning about the benefits of having a more formalized business structure beyond just consultant or sole proprietor, she filed articles of incorporation and created the parent company,
Ggene S.I.S., LLC. Donna knows that she is called to equip entrepreneurs to be blessings, creating a ripple effect that reaches all families of the world.
"I'll make you a great nation and bless you. I'll make you famous; you'll be a blessing... All the families of the Earth will be blessed through you."
~ Genesis 12:2-3 (MSG)
My personality type is that of a "compassionate counselor". I have great empathy for small business owners.
I know the...
*frustrations
*overwhelm
*feeling "a fraud"
*belittled & overlooked
*patted on the back and applauded but not sponsored for true monetary elevation
*fear of failing my team (and actually failing them, unfortunately, which is why I am an MBA candidate now)
Despite it all, I have continued to learn and continue to work to build my business in a sustainable way. My goal is to ensure that I am able to keep moving forward with helping other leaders despite the challenges I am constantly facing in both personal life and in business life.
I know that I am creating a ripple effect on lives and businesses, and, as a result, maybe some of your lives and businesses will continue the ripple in a more empowered way now, too.
I am not just writing to give you information, but also to inspire you. All of the small business clients that I have consulted with over the years needed more than half of what I do for them in the form of inspiration alongside the practical services I have been providing.
Being an entrepreneur is hard, and we have to keep each other encouraged because if we don't do it, who will?
