A colleague of mine, another coach and consultant, recently talked about why people so often do not take that next step and act on their vision. He said they are fearful, and those fearful thoughts bring them nothing but things to fear. There is some truth to this. Perhaps you’ve heard it phrased another way, […]
Always Add Value
Always Add Value is one of my 52 Quintessential Principles of Greatness codified to keep us moving from great to greatness. I forget to apply this principle myself every once in a while. In fact, just last week I was asked to by a really sharp associate leader, “what value will you bring to my […]

Midlife crisis. It is a term bandied about, which can conjure images of sports car purchases, new gym memberships, flirtations/affairs/divorces, botox and bikinis.

Your Visionary is Hungry: When was the last time you fed her?
I’ve talked before about presence, what it is and why it’s important to develop, (see “Unwrapping Your Presence”). The first steps in developing this presence are asking the right questions, then opening yourself up to listening to the answers from the visionary voice inside you. These answers (or more and better questions) might come from within, […]

The Greatness Challenge: Excerpt
In this manifesto, I beseech you to belly up to the realization that we can no longer afford to rest on our laurels.

Yesterday’s Winds Still Blowing Me Away
Generosity, Gratefulness and Grace. Sound like you? If so, you’re a lot like my clients. One woman client, Ms.Clio, recently did something extraordinary.
