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.

  • Need some inspiration?

    I was reminded today by Timothy Ferris about the importance of setting goals and the reality of the world we live in today. To say that I was encouraged would be an understatement! Hope his words have the same effect on you as they did me. It’s lonely at the top. 99% of the world…

  • Who is she and what is she to you?

    I was thinking about this in the context of the person I am today and whether or not I was being REAL – being ME? Or was it that I was an assortment of habits, perceptions and things that over the years I learned to accept as my truth when in fact I just borrowed…

  • Slipping Into Darkness

    Was feeling a bit like this song by War today…like I couldn’t see exactly where I was going with this particular client. For me to be able to function I MUST always have a framework – a point of reference and I had none. I was slowly slipping into darkness so of course I decided…

  • If You Don’t Commit – You Won’t Get It!

    Barbara Corcoran was a guest on the Nate Berkus Show yesterday and I am  really happy that I caught the episode. She was giving advice to young designers and artisans, critiquing their presentations and helping them to better sell their wares. At the end, Nate asked her to summarize what she has learned over the…

  • Why is Change so Difficult?

    Old habits die hard – the saying goes – but why is that? We’ve been told that it takes 21 days to change a habit. This I believe came from Maxwell Maltz. Originally a Plastic Surgeon, Maltz noticed that it took 21 days for amputees to cease feeling phantom sensations in the amputated limb. From…

  • Do You Feel Tired ALL the Time?

    Find the Energy to Live Your Best Life NOW! As published in my Women In Leader Series Column – Express Woman – 14 3 2011 Post Carnival and many Trinbagonians are tired. That’s understandable. But I’m talking about feeling tired all the time. Do you? How many times have you said it yourself – “I’m…

  • Meetingitis – Meet the Time Vampires Extraordinaire

    As published in the Business Newsday today March 10 2011 Meetingitis is a disease that turns businesses into unproductive, indecisive, behemoths. These meetings can be of the ‘got a minute’ variety to the all day marathon and any version in between but ‘got a minute’ is the most insidious of all the time vampires. He…

  • Want to be Strong and Self Reliant?

    Then ASK FOR HELP! I don’t know why for such a long time in my life – I wanted to go it alone. I needed to prove that I did it all – by myself with no help from anyone else. What a huge ego I had back then. But so many of us do.…

  • Success is…

    Well first I want to talk a bit about synchronicity. You see life ALWAYS delivers. Thoughts are so powerful. You think a question in your head and voila! the answer shows up in someone’s blog post, or in a conversation that you’re overhearing or in a sitcom. You never know where you answer will come…

  • The missing ingredient in the success sauce

    As published in my column – Business Newsday Thursday, March 3 2011 In this fast paced world, boredom is prevalent. So much to do, so much to see – what’s next? We are never totally anywhere. We’re at the art gallery but in our heads we are already having dinner while another part of us…
