What’s Your Story?: Your Individual Brand Promise
During the many years that I spent waiting in airport lines, I frequently found myself playing the game, “What’s Your Story?” You know the one: you try and guess a person’s profession or position based on how they look and act.

Leaders are facing unprecedented levels of stress, dysfunction and disappointments, taxing their energy and productivity.

As a leader, what does it take for you to be successful, and have the career and life you really want? From what I’ve seen, I believe we need to create a framework for clarity. I introduced this in my last post. You see, clarity of mind stands as a basic framework to hang other […]

Even seasoned leaders can have a lack of self-awareness, unacknowledged weaknesses and leadership liabilities. I’ve been writing about this in recent posts. Why?

What Your People Skills Reveal
Leaders are the glue that holds a team together. They create an environment in which groups perform harmoniously for optimal results.

Great Leadership Starts with Self-Awareness
Self-awareness is key to success in work, life, and relationships. It is the foundation of strong leadership, providing an inventory of character, skills, strengths and weaknesses.

Create An Environment of Trust
I believe that trust is the single biggest issue confronting leaders today, especially for those engaged in adjusting a culture. Too often, I see leaders undermine trust, with predictable consequences.
