How do we make our meetings better? Get more accomplished in less time? Shut down the gabbers and get the smart people talking? I have three actions that make my meetings fun, collaborative, and powerful.

We all love our sleep. It’s the only time we have to ourselves, and rightly so, we should be selfish when it comes to healthy, restful sleep.

You’re a good manager. You listen to your people. You help them with obstacles. You try your best to be a better leader.

​But for some reason, your department is stagnant. You aren’t getting the ‘hot’ projects. Your team comes to work defeated and war-torn. And worst of all, you see other teams all moving up.

​​What’s going on? Your team isn’t effectively growing and developing to allow all ships to rise. Many managers complain about team infighting, missed deadlines, focusing on emergencies rather than priorities, and a general malaise of new work, ideas, and solutions.

You work hard. You come in early, stay late. You're good friends with everyone. If asked, you jump for your boss.

​But for some reason, you’re not moving up. You don’t get that promotion. You get paltry bonuses. And worst of all, people whom you’d never expect to move up, do.

​​What’s going on? You’re not playing the game by the same rules that THEY do.

I believe that staying abreast of new ideas, trends, and information is essential to a high-performing career and business. My job is to help YOU cut through the noise and find resources that are worth consuming and energize your spirit. ​This is my gift to you. Enjoy!

How much do the important movers and shakers know you, like you, and find you valuable? Because if you’re one of those employees who think if they just do their job — and they will be rewarded with more money, a promotion, and various accolades — you are sorely mistaken.

We hear of those superstars who ‘bucked’ the system and made billions. Here’s a little secret: they were extremely lucky or they were in the right place, at the right time, with the right people, doing the right things.

How does a company neatly resume regular or new operations without losing a portion of their workforce to the change?

As we slowly emerge from our country’s pandemic, there will be many current and future adjustments to how we work.

​I am a firm believer that businesses should start to shift to a 4-day workweek. Why?

Eliminate the interference and your full potential will equal your full performance, where there are no obstacles in your way holding you back.
