Most costly decisions begin with
an inaccurate understanding of the situation.

I help leaders understand what is actually happening before major decisions are made or
resources are invested in solving the wrong problem.

  • You can’t buy change

    Change is difficult primarily because our brain wants us to keep doing the same thing over and over again. Our brain’s rationale is if you’ve been doing the same thing over and over again, and you’re still alive, then it’s working. Often when we buy a solution, especially one that’s guaranteeing change in a particular…

  • What’s in your toolbox?

    Every five years or so, I go through my books and decide what I’ll donate and what I will hang on to. This is difficult for me because I don’t like to part with books, but it is now a question of practicality – I don’t have the shelf space to keep all the books.…

  • Operation “Get 10” for Start-Ups & Entrepreneurs

    If you’ve had dreams of running a high-profit, high-impact business but still feel that you’re a struggling start-up, this is the piece that’s missing.

  • How do you develop a self you don’t know?

    I attended an event last Saturday called “Spilling the Tea”, hosted by Sunny Gopaul. I wasn’t sure what was going to happen at that event, however I am so grateful that I attended. The panel consisted of five women who spoke about their experiences in business and life and in particular underscoring many of the…

  • Redefine your problem as a missing or faulty system

    Yesterday I wrote about seeing versus actually solving problems. Being aware of or seeing problems is only half the battle. If you’ve been struggling with a recurring issue in your business, and no matter what you do, it’s still there, resurfacing and rearing its ugly head then what I am about to share, will help…

  • Seeing versus solving problems

    We all see problems. Or so we think. What we really see are problem’s symptoms, not the cause of a particular problem – that is, why it occurred in the first place. I saw this illustration below recently showing problem awareness in companies. I think it might be more accurate if the word symptoms was…

  • You are best at being you

    Why aren’t you using more of this knowledge to your advantage? When Giulia Enders was 17, she developed a skin disease and realized how little she knew about her own body, so she started reading, and it turned out it was the gut that fascinated her the most. She cleared up her problem by diet.…

  • In silence we find clarity

    We live in a very noisy world. This is not all bad except for when we are required to think. We have been schooled to go in search of answers externally – Google being our favorite go-to. Well ok, it’s my favorite go-to. Some rely on Tik Tok experts or field answers from those already…

  • When the discovery stops, the joy and wonder die

    Some of you might know him as ‘Dr. Iggy Frome’, from New Amsterdam where he played attending child psychologist but he began his professional acting career before he even made it to high school. Acting is his craft, his expertise as it were and in a Success Magazine 2019 interview, Tyler Labine shared that in…
