Helping managers with real-world tips and tools. Because no one figures out leadership alone.
Wild seeing all these CEO changes. (It’s not about the leaders; they will all land just fine)

The real story is how confused companies are right now. Swapping out the top job has become the shortcut when no one is sure what strategy will actually work. #Leadership #BusinessTrends

Nvidia’s $5T market cap equals roughly 25 Disneys, 50 Nikes, or 3,000 JetBlues.

It’s hard to justify numbers like that. I’d never bet against innovation, but at some point we’ll shift from building AI to optimizing AI. That’s when the real value gets tested.

Remember managers: if you can get your team to race into Monday instead of tiptoeing around it, the rest of the week follows their pace.

I LOVE THIS “Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.” Jim Ryun

Leaders, stop juggling priorities!

Focus = Superpower. Ditch meeting marathons & email chaos. Zero in on 1 crucial impact per team. Sanity (and breakthroughs) depend on it! Learn more at www.first-timemanagers.com/Knowledge/Fo... #LeadershipSimplified #FocusIsSuperpower

Manager Tip: The best 1:1s feel like coaching, not interrogation.

- Set regular cadence & stick to it.
- Let them talk first with open questions.
- Listen > speak.
- Keep notes & follow up.
- Create psychological safety
- Be curious, not judgmental.

Ever feel like your hard work disappears into the void?

Here is the trick: once or twice a year, bundle your wins into one big project, give it an epic name, and tell a story.

People forget tasks. They remember projects. #CareerTips #Leadership #WorkSmarter

Manager Tip: “Accidental Genius” Method
When someone presents a terrible idea in a meeting, respond with: “That’s… interesting. Walk me through how you see that working in practice.” Then sit back and watch as they either talk themselves out of it or accidentally stumble into a brilliant solution.

I've just switched from ChatGPT to @anthropic.com for one unexpected reason: it lets me build and see HTML instantly.

Create an invitation → live preview in chat. Export PDF. Print. Done.

Finally an AI that shows you things, not just talks about them. 🎨

I can’t get over how impressive @claudeai.bsky.social is. I asked it to build a fantasy football webpage for fun to show off to my friends and coworkers a little. And damn, I got something that looks amazing! 🤯⚡

I just tried #ClaudeAI from @anthropic.com, and its coding power is truly impressive. 😲 I had it review a page on my site, and it rewrote the HTML perfectly, then previewed the design. I don’t even know HTML, and Claude handled it all. Mind blown. Anyone else using Claude? #AI #Coding #ClaudeAI

Playing with AI… built the video using #invideoAI and made some edits in #metaAI. Interesting to see what tool does that better #ai

I’ve been using AI in a slightly different way lately. Normally, it’s for emails, SQL, etc, but lately I’ve been using it more like a sounding board. Just tossing ideas back and forth to help me think clearly. www.first-timemanagers.com/AI/Thinking-... #AI #Productivity #DecisionMaking #Clarity

Salary refresh!
Even if you’re crushing it daily, timing still matters when asking for a raise. Most companies plan raises around Sept–Oct, so the smart move is to ask in late July or August. Start prepping now: www.first-timemanagers.com/Leadership/A... 💼💸 #CareerGrowth #AskForARaise #WorkSmart

I use AI daily for writing and research—but building a simple end-to-end process is still tough. Trying to get it to update a project plan. Anyone figured this out? What’s working for you? #OpenAI #Gemini
