Teaching women leadership skills learned from their time as Marines is Angie Morgan and Courtney Lynch goal. Learn skills that can be applied immediately directly from the Marines with a twist just for women.

Angie and Courtney have shared their leadership message with tens of thousands of professionals in Fortune 500 companies, nonprofits, law firms, and educational institutions. Lead Star’s empowering message resonates everywhere.

Charm School for Guys: From T-Rex to Tools!
A brutally blunt owner’s manual and fix-it guide for every year; make and model of guy! From the far North reaches of Alaska, where there are more men than women: Mary Marshall takes a realistic and uncensored look at things men do and say with enough blunt irony that most males will recognize himself with a good long laugh. Her new book: Charm School for Guys takes a much needed and realistic look at men: Find out the truth about sex appeal…or lack. She gets into their closet, wallet, ride and their heads. (Hummm; is that a messy place?) Do guys need a translator: when all they hear is Sex, Food, and Beer? This is a no rocket science look at men and what to do. Men: You are encouraged to listen. Because what is better? Breakfast for two…or life sucks for one? This is going to be a hoot of a show full of fun and laughter.
Introduction
People with big ideas as not always scientists, physicists or CEO’s; we never know when an obscure little idea might become the next big thing. I personally think the next big idea is in a black book, called Charm School for Guys. Mary Marshall has hit upon an idea that could change the course of the man/women interaction. She has brought to the forefront the fact that what guys this is charming and what women think is charming are so very different. And now…from the far north state of Alaska, where she took on a decidedly difference in ration of men to women. Welcome to Amazing Women Mary.
