Avoid Codependent Coaches
As a personal trainer, I have always prided myself on saying goodbye to clients. When I’ve done my job right, they are empowered to live a healthy lifestyle on their own. They no longer need me, and that’s a victory! Unfortunately, I see too many programs that create crutches for people, and the relationship becomes […]
Emotional Intelligence is Vital in Workplace
I’m going back a number of years here, but I enjoyed the movie with Tom Hanks and Madonna called A League of Their Own. It’s a story of a has-been baseball coach who has a drinking problem and is demoted to a women’s league. He’s not happy about it but slowly begins to see the […]
Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is
As a business consultant and professional recruiter, I can’t tell you how many times I hear the words “we want the best talent” or “we value our people” from companies, yet when the time comes to put their money where their mouth is, they back pedal, settle and won’t invest in their people.

I’ve always been about helping people by bringing them together. I create solutions that get results! I recently saw the movie, Courier, with Benedict Cumberbatch where […]
A Culture of Candid Communication
As someone who has spent over 20 years consulting for companies, I can tell you that the number one problem most businesses face is poor communication. You’d think with highly intelligent leaders this would not be the case, but statistics tell us otherwise: 4 out of 10 workers say their managers fail to engage in […]
Don’t Assume
While walking my dog the other day, a lady approached me laughing. She said that from a distance, it appeared I wasn’t wearing pants. She was taken back by this and her mind was already racing with judgements and what she would say to me for such an atrocity. When she got closer, she realized […]
