L&D friends, we lost another giant. Ken Phillips passed away. He was also so kind to me and I enjoyed spending time with him at ATD events and even had dinner with him when he came to Columbus to do some consulting. Holding his family in my heart as they navigate this tremendous loss❤️.

I’m behind on content again but good reason. Several former team members are interviewing for a people leader role and I’ve been doing mock interviews and coaching them.

Dec 1, Day 1: Lighting the Flame of Vision: How leaders create a shared vision.
What makes a vision powerful? It’s not just having a clear idea of where you want to go, it’s about creating a vision so compelling that others not only see it but want to be part of making it real.

Especially this time of year where you may not be able to get outside as much, curling up with a good book is a nice relaxing activity.
This is your reminder to get a library card. They have so many services and basically all of them are free.
