About

Me.

I’m Sharell Thomas-Hodge, also known as The Leadership Lyricist, and I teach leaders how to leverage their voice—literally and figuratively—to command respect, inspire action, and drive results. I craft leadership strategies with rhythm and precision—helping professionals, executives and businesses lead boldly, communicate with impact and build lasting legacies.

With over 25 years of HR leadership and experience across corporate, nonprofit, and international sectors, I’ve coached and consulted countless professionals on how to elevate their executive presence, leadership influence and career trajectory. Whether in the boardroom, on a stage, or leading teams, your ability to lead effectively starts with how you communicate, carry yourself and connect with others—and that’s exactly what I help leaders master.

Why Work With Me?

Most executive presence trainings focus on posture and image, but true leadership is about voice, authority and influence. My approach is different:

✅ I don’t teach theory—I create transformation. You’ll walk away with actionable strategies to own your voice and presence in any space.

✅ I combine psychology, vocal power, and leadership strategy into an engaging, high-energy experience that leaves lasting impact.

✅ I make leadership presence tangible. You’ll develop a signature presence that turns heads, earns trust, and drives results.

My Leadership Philosophy: F.O.C.U.S.

Success doesn’t happen by accident—it requires intentionality. That’s why everything I do is rooted in my F.O.C.U.S. framework:

  • F – Faith-Driven Excellence: Leadership is a calling. I help professionals lead with wisdom and purpose.

  • O – Ownership & Accountability: Great leaders own their journey—no excuses, just execution.

  • C – Courageous Conversations: I help leaders communicate with clarity and confidence, even in tough situations.

  • U – Unwavering Integrity & Authenticity: Success without integrity is failure in disguise. I teach leaders to lead with honesty and transparency.

  • S – Service & Impact: Leadership is about lifting others and leaving a legacy.

 The Leadership Lyricist Difference

I believe every leader has a voice—some just haven’t tuned it yet. I help professionals leverage  their voice to influence, inspire and lead boldly. Because before people trust your leadership, they hear it.
