9 Ways to Build Executive Presence
What exactly is this thing called “executive presence?” I may be wrong, but I think it’s replacing “executive charisma,” which got tarnished in a tsunami of corporate greed and CEO failures in the first decade of this century. Karl Albrecht explains presence as an element of social intelligence (Social Intelligence, 2009), and says it’s the […]
Change for the New Year: Call a Coach
One of the things we can look at changing and improving for the New Year is ourselves and our ability to manage ourselves well. Smart people with career ambitions know they can’t do it alone. (Mainly because we are self-deceptive, but also because coaching works when you need to make personal changes.) Many of the […]

Kicking your own butt…
Whenever someone says “I’m not book smart, but I’m street smart”, all I hear is “I’m not real smart, but I’m imaginary smart”. Did you ever see “Liar, Liar” with Jim Carrey? There is one scene where he is trying to get out of going into court because he can’t lie. Since he can’t lie, […]

Monolithic Oil…a conservation love story
The only time I look forward to a red light is when I’m trying to finish a text. National Lampoon has been putting out very funny, very satirical material for years.

What has happened to your history?
“I think part of a best friend’s job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.” You may know that as of March of this year I outlived my father. When you pass a milestone in your personal history like that, there is a great need to reflect on many facets of […]
