How to Achieve the Sweet Spot between People & Process
It was Dr. W. Edwards Deming who famously said this: A bad system will beat a good person every time. He’s right. If your workflows are clunky, your tools outdated, your decision-making slow, and your culture misaligned — even your top talent will eventually burn out or disengage. In most organizations, 94% of results come…

Possibility, Profits, and the People You Choose to Bet On
Some people don’t need to be “taught possibility”; they walk into rooms wired for it. They are possibility thinkers. They see the possibilities and immediately begin asking “what if” questions. They are energized by ambiguity and focused on impact. Karrie Sullivan recently posted that “Art of the Possible” sessions are a waste of time. If…

Don’t compromise
In order to succeed in the world according to you and only you alone, you must let go, in order to let in. Start with being fake. Eliminate it altogether. Stop hiding. Allow yourself to be fully seen. Quit trying to outdistance fear. Fear is here for the long haul – don’t let it stop…

We All Have a Superpower – What’s Yours?
We all possess some ability that makes us “US”. We don’t even recognize it because we go to it so easily. It’s so natural that it’s almost invisible.

Not Producing Results? You Might Be Out of Alignment on the Inside

Is Success in Life and Business the Result of Heredity, Luck, Money or some Combination of these?
Thinking this way certainly explains a lot of the results we see in the world. The disproportionate numbers between those who have and those who don’t is staggering. We are unable to see any major differences between us and them except that they were born into money, they got lucky or they were placed in…

Why Comparisons NEVER Put Us in a Great Frame of Mind!
Yesterday I found myself feeling down. I started to bitch to myself about what I was doing with my life. I felt as if I was making zero progress and not ‘getting it together’ as quickly as I thought I needed to to take the steps I SHOULD be taking. I guess I could…
Clarity BEFORE Execution. Structure BEFORE Speed
