Behind the Collective
the calling
At the center of everything is a simple belief: do the human things well.
Courtney Davis, MBA, CPCU, ARM, is the founder of Empower Moves Collective™.
Long before The Collective had a name, this was already happening. Courtney Davis, MBA, CPCU, ARM, has been mentoring professionals, making herself available, and using her voice to open doors for others. Informally, consistently, and without hesitation. She was also speaking and facilitating on the very ideas that would become the foundation of this work, and the response was resounding. When she graduated Executive MBA program, she was named most likely to become a motivational speaker. At the time she smiled. Now she understands why.
For Courtney, that means seeing the individual, not just the role, the status, or the moment, and approaching people with the same respect, awareness, and care she would want in return.
That is what she brings into every coaching session, every keynote stage, and every room she facilitates. It has never been separate from who she is. It has always been the heart of it.
