Shining the Spotlight on Our Co-Founders:
We recognized after working together for a long time that some of our audience didn’t know who we really were. We tend to focus on our guests and promoting people and ideas. So rather than talk about ourselves we decided to talk about each other.
Join us as we celebrate the essence of our community, where individual strength merged with collective wisdom truly shines.
Tom shares a heartfelt reflection on Adrienne:
For those who don’t know me, I am Tom Rosenak, co-founder of A Leadership Beyond. By intention, we rarely write in the first person on this page. I have the opportunity to say a few words about my colleague, Adrienne Guerrero.
Adrienne is the visionary founder of Positive Delta, a company dedicated to placing people at the heart of every change initiative. To learn more about the transformative services she offers, I encourage you to visit her website:
While Adrienne’s professional accomplishments are undeniably impressive, this post aims to delve deeper into the qualities that make her an exceptional partner and collaborator. It’s not just what Adrienne does that’s remarkable; it’s who she is that truly shines.
Three qualities consistently stand out, making her the ideal person to partner and collaborate with:
1. Trustworthiness:
Adrienne’s trustworthiness transcends mere honesty. She willingly embraces vulnerability and accepts the mistakes of others without compromising on standards. This remarkable quality fosters an environment where those she leads are inspired to elevate their performance within a safe and nurturing space.
2. Servant Leader:
Adrienne’s leadership philosophy aligns with the wisdom of the Chinese sage, Lao Tzu. She aims to empower her clients rather than seeking the spotlight for herself. While she is more than capable of stepping into the forefront, when necessary, she often works diligently behind the scenes, requiring no adulation. Her commitment to teaching servant leadership at her Alma Mater, Lewis University mirrors her approach in business and life.
3. Humor:
In the midst of the hustle and bustle of business and life’s challenges, Adrienne brings a refreshing attitude: “be serious about your work and service, but not so much about yourself.” This quality is invaluable, especially for A Leadership Beyond, where we navigate a multitude of competing priorities. Even as we work diligently, Adrienne possesses an innate sense of when a dose of levity is the best medicine.
In conclusion, Adrienne Guerrero embodies qualities that not only drive the success of Positive Delta but also enrich our collaborative efforts at A Leadership Beyond. Her trustworthiness, servant leadership philosophy, and humor are invaluable assets, making her a cherished partner and an inspirational leader.

Adrienne shares a bit about Tom:
Community, I am Adrienne Guerrero. As many of you know, Tom Rosenak and I partnered up three years ago (yes, during the Pandemic) with a vision to build this community focused on collaboration and partnership, and the merging of strengths for an even stronger pulse toward the practice of people-focused leadership. Today, I am excited to share with you my reflection on my colleague and friend, Tom.
Tom is the founder of Diamond Mind, a firm committed to transforming individuals to their truest selves and teams to their highest potential. I encourage you to learn more about the services Diamond Mind offers at Dig Diamond Mind.
Tom has unique qualities that shine and reflect the light around them, like diamonds (yes, pun intended.) I’d like to share a few facets with you to describe the highest level of insight, leadership, and transformation you will encounter when partnering with Tom and Diamond Mind.
- Perceptive – Tom has a unique way to guide you to your own self-discovery, which he navigates by listening so attentively that he captures not only what you say, but how you say it and your expression while saying it. It’s as though he shines a light for you without you even realizing it. With kindness and patience, he sees ahead what might be holding you back, but instead of telling you (I don’t think I’ve once heard him say “you should…”), he asks questions you would not consider yourself and then waits patiently while you work out your answer.
- Thoughtful – Tom is the philosopher between us. He can go deep and bring insightful reflection drawn from his deep spirituality and thorough study of philosophy. When you read our posts that are profound and robust with ancient wisdom, you can be sure it was penned by Tom. The value to his clients and colleagues is the breadth of knowledge he holds and draws upon but shares in a way so natural and conversational (I almost never need to scratch my head wondering what he means – well, maybe once, which is a good track record given how often we talk!)
-
- Generous – Tom is driven by generosity and an eagerness to support. He selflessly gives his time, energy, attention, and knowledge. He re-charges, to be sure, because he does practice what he teaches. He models how to discover what matters most to us, manage our energy, create and honor boundaries. In doing so, his presence is offered to you fully, without distraction, when his time is for you. You walk away feeling important and better able to face what you’re up against because you have a partner to make you the you that you like best.
To wrap this up, Tom brings out the best in you and your teams so naturally – and that is what makes Diamond Mind successful and brings our community of A Leadership Beyond together. He is a leader who inspires greatness – and we are lucky enough to be recipients of these gifts.
