Thinking

Thinking

January got started with a bang.  In the first 30 days I’ve traipsed across the country delivering keynote speeches as well as full day trainings.  In doing so, I’m reminded how critical our thinking is in everything we do.

Leaders Forum

Leaders Forum

I recently returned from a fabulous trip to San Diego.  I was invited to speak at one of my client’s conferences: their Leader’s Forum. The purpose of this Leader’s Forum was to bring people together to celebrate their success, and build their capabilities to achieve even more.  I love meetings like this!  The whole notion of leaders and leadership is...
