Tamara Lindholm

Working with Tamara has been one of the most impactful professional development experiences of my career. Through her work in Inspired Leadership and Working Genius, she has helped me and my team develop a deeper self-awareness and a clearer understanding of how we each contribute best.

What sets Tamara apart is her gift for listening and asking the right questions. She doesn't hand you the answers — she creates the space for you to find them yourself. More often than not, I already had the answer; I just hadn't asked myself the right question. That realization alone has been transformative.

Her influence has reached well beyond our sessions. I am now actively developing my own coaching skills, inspired directly by the way she models the craft. If you are a leader who wants to grow — not just professionally, but in how you understand yourself and the people around you — Tamara Lindholm is someone you need in your corner.

I cannot say enough positive things about Tamara and INSpired Leadership. I have personally utilized this training for the past 9 years, and it has had a lasting impact on both my professional and personal leadership journey. I have also had Tamara facilitate regional trainings for NKCES, and districts have even hosted their own trainings with her. The feedback has consistently been outstanding!

Leadership is not an easy journey, and what makes this work so powerful is the practical framework and self-awareness it provides to help leaders become their very best. Tamara has a unique ability to challenge, encourage, and inspire growth in ways that create meaningful, ongoing change. I am grateful for the impact this training has had on me and the many leaders across our region.

Working with Tamara will be unlike any professional learning experience you’ve had. You leave feeling more confident, supported, and challenged to grow in all the right ways. Every session pushes me to reflect, grow professionally, and lead with greater intentionality.

Tamara has taught me the importance of pausing, questioning without judgment, and being fully prepared before entering conversations. Rather than simply telling people what to do, she has helped me learn how to question, guide, and support in ways that build ownership and growth in others.

Because of her coaching, I have strengthened relationships, created greater capacity within my team, and developed more autonomy in the people I serve. The impact of her work extends far beyond professional learning—it changes the way you lead.

Working with Tamara has grown my self-awareness in a way that has led me to genuinely grown. I have discovered that through energy acknowledgement, awareness, and use with our team … my work is more enjoyable and fulfilling.

Thank you Tamara for the impact you have had on me and our team!
