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.

  • Pitch your Tent in the Land of Hope and Press On

    As published in today’s Business Newsday “Hope is to the soul what breath is to the body – restorative and life-giving,” Allen Randolph, described as “a pastor to pastors,” so beautifully illustrates. “People can learn to live without a lot of things, but not live well nor live long without hope.  You live better and more…

  • If Fear is your Strategy, then your Business (and life) is in Trouble

  • Keep Your Job or Tell the Truth?

    You have to understand: most people were scared around Bezos because they were waaaay too worried about trying to keep their jobs. People in high-level positions sometimes have a little too much personal self-esteem invested in their success. Can you imagine how annoying it must be for him to be around timid people all day…

    CONTEMPLATE THIS… Why you might ask? Because IMPOSSIBLE is frightening! Let the word tumble around a bit in your head…that’s right…impossible…impossible…impossible…I’m going to attempt to do the impossible.

  • Today NOT Tomorrow

    Nike popularized “Just do it”. One of my colleagues instilled in me “Do it now” Yet at times I find myself putting off the very thing that I KNOW will take me to the next stage – the next level of my life. Why? Perhaps because I am afraid and fear really is our only…

  • Fearing success more than failure

    This is not a new thought. Many times we say it quite confidently: “I think I fear success more than I fear failure” But that’s as far as we dare go. Having said it – we’ve admitted it and somehow feel absolved. If only for a moment. Failure is familiar – like a worn shoe,…
