Hi, I’m Tirza Barnes, CEO of Tirza Motivates! When I started my career nearly 25 years ago, I had limited experience with these skills. I quickly learned that they are crucial for building confidence and climbing the career ladder. These skills have propelled my career, and now I am passionate about teaching them to professionals at all levels.
As a Trainer, Consultant, and Coach, I am dedicated to helping professionals achieve their career goals. My programs are designed to drive continuous breakthroughs, identify areas needing improvement, and inspire the courage to make necessary changes to enhance performance, self-esteem, attitude, and results.
I understand the stress of underperformance, insecurity, imposter syndrome, and doubts about belonging and worthiness. This can change quickly with the right training, coaching, and tools—like those offered in the Raise Your Performance Workshop Series.
