Right now, we are in uncharted territory with COVID-19. One thing I know for sure, we are designed for connection and not made to isolate.

Why We Still Need In-person Activities
Negotiate for the Win-Win
I would like to first apologize for all the misleading guidance out in the world telling you to “take no prisoners” and go for the “kill” when negotiating. Advice such as this couldn’t be further from the truth, unless of course you don’t want long-term relationships, future business and a viable company. Negotiating is like […]

Fear and stress are more dangerous than […]
The Importance of Work/Life Balance
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.

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!
