I’ve been preaching the work/life balance message for more than 20 years now. When asked what one thing summarizes why I do what I do, it would be work/life balance. You see, I haven’t always been good at it. In my twenties, I was climbing the corporate ladder while attending night school to obtain my […]
Transform Your Leadership and Become a Super Leader
During our uncertain and ever-changing times, I am grateful for movies on demand or on DVD, especially the ones where the good guys like Captain America win! Is everyone familiar with Captain America? He is a WWII experiment to create the ultimate solider: he’s super strong, incredibly fast, and indestructible. In the first movie, he […]
Handling Crucial Conversations with EQ
Back in September of 2001, authors Joseph Grenny, Al Switzler, and Ron McMillan released their book, Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When the Stakes are High. Not in a million years would they have predicted what would happen about the same time as their book launched. Perhaps it was Devine providence or just luck, but […]
Applying EQ in the Workplace
Through time, encouragement has often been the difference between success and failure and hope and hopelessness. As we enter another season of mud-slinging ad campaign, I think we could all use a little encouragement, don’t you? Encouragement: giving hope or promise; to inspire with courage, spirit and hope (Merriam-Webster). Many songs, books and ad slogans […]
Manners Still Matter: Be the Change!
The political ads have started and so has the mud-slinging. I’m sick of it already, and the election isn’t until November. Good gravy! What has happened? Road rage, bullying, shaming, name calling, hate…it’s all ugly, and it has to stop. I think we have become lazy. Technology has permitted us to throw abbreviated words and […]
February 2020
YOUR HEALTH As we enter the second month of the new year, we are right in the midst of cold and flu season. The CDC has been reporting one of the worst outbreaks, making it even more important for us to do the right things to avoid getting sick. First and foremost, we must understand […]
Know Your Why and Purpose
Back in 1997, I started offering consulting services and created my business not out of a desire but out of obedience. I had just gone through a nasty divorce and had nothing emotionally or financially left. I sought the security of a job, but God told me no. He made it very clear to me […]
January 2020
YOUR HEALTH Depending upon how happy your holidays were, you may be feeling sluggish and fatigued. Even if you were good, January is a great month to get serious about your flexibility. So many of us grew up without being taught the importance of proper stretching, and it may be catching up with us. The […]
Elevate your executive team meetings
As a business consultant, I often observe executive team meetings to offer ways to improve their effectiveness. When a team has worked together for years, they can get in a rut by checking off the box that says “executive meeting” without really adding value to one another. They can lose sight of what is pertinent […]
Reach Your Goals in Record Time in 2020
Setting goals is the easy part; taking action toward them requires daily discipline so that we may actually achieve them. Once you have defined your goals, you will want to anchor your why to them. Saying you want to lose weight to fit into your cloths better isn’t a strong enough why. If it were, […]
