Change management. It’s a topic that comes up all the time with my clients. When they talk about it, I’m always curious to ask, “what do you mean by change management?” Most often, they talk about the pace of change, the rate at which their team needs to learn to adapt to all that’s happening in the business, the new…
When you face the same situation repeatedly expecting different results, they call that insanity. Yet in the market today, the talent challenges are real. I’m in daily conversations with clients all over the world and everyone is challenged with their people. Most employers are expecting anywhere from 33-50% transition. How will we rethink our workplaces, our structures and our methods? …
As a feeling person, when the vast array of feelings collides all at once, it results in numbness for me. I can’t process them all, can’t feel anything, and am left in a void, feeling empty and wanting to disappear. If not disappear, I’d like to run away. Only I can’t. I must breathe, regroup, and center myself in something…
The world is fortunate to have you. What if we all believed this? How would we greet each other, meet challenges, work through concerns, explore differences, wake up each day and try things? When you greet the day with a solid belief in yourself, the world shows up to meet you there. How do we remind one another when we…
When you think about your team, do you recognize you’ll only go as far and as fast as the sum of all? It isn’t about any one of you, it’s about the collective. The intangible, connective tissue that bonds the team and makes those overlaps and gaps between you irrelevant. It’s about finding resources, accelerating what can be done, and…
Let go. Looking at what’s between today and tomorrow can make us feel like we have a deficit. We don’t – it’s perceived lack based on what’s possible and that’s a big thing. Looking at what’s between today and our past can make us feel like we’re winning. A healthy balance of both is necessary to keep the equilibrium for…
Consistency. It’s elusive to many of us. When learning, it’s the deal maker. When seeking mastery, it separates those who excel from those who don’t. In any situation where you seek to deliver excellence, from cooking to performing, doing your work to playing sports, learning an instrument or a new language, art, leadership or any other venture – it requires…
One profound lesson available to us all right now is to meet people where they are. Are you curious enough to find out what someone is dealing with right now? Do you check in, ground yourself, and see all that is available when fully present with someone or do you breeze by, making your deposits and moving onto the next…
8,760. That’s the number of hours you have in a year. 168 hours each week. It doesn’t sound like a lot to me when you consider the number of hours you sleep, the time you spend in the car, getting ready for your day and other mandatory functions like putting gas in your car, purchasing groceries and other tasks. When…
Productive, not busy. They’re not the same, yet we can use the words as if they are. We all fall into the trap of busyness. It’s in our language and our psyche. When we’re “too busy” we become stressed, and often are less productive. Imagine if you changed your language from busy to productive. Can you be “too productive” and…
