Working with ‘Too Busy’ Sponsors
Busy sponsors aren’t disengaged—they’re overwhelmed. Change success depends on helping them make the smallest, sharpest moves with the biggest echo. Redefine engagement, script micro-moments, and amplify their voice. Smart leverage beats constant access every time.

The Field Guide to Bumper Sticker Leadership
Leaders love to toss out slogans like “People hate change” or “We’re like a family here.” They sound sharp, but they shut down feedback and disguise deeper issues. Real resistance isn’t fear of change—it’s frustration with poor planning, muddled priorities, and chaos masquerading as strategy.

The Cost of Being ‘Nice’ in Change Work
Being “nice” feels safe in change work—but it comes at a cost. When we smooth over conflict, delay hard truths, or prioritize approval over impact, we quietly erode our credibility and influence. True kindness means courage: telling the truth with care and leading with clarity.
