MICHELLE PARKES
Some people rise to the room.
She sets the standard for it.
The most powerful person in any room is rarely the most senior.
They are the most formed.
Michelle Parkes built Executive Standard Caribbean and The Art of the Table on a single conviction: that the Caribbean's most ambitious professionals deserve a standard of formation equal to their ambition. Not an imported model. The original.
This is not coaching.
This builds what is required.
