Don’t let every troll in your life have admin access to your emotions! Some folks are out here pressing your buttons like it’s an elevator…that doesn’t mean you have to go where they send you. 😁
Resilience is the best software you’ll ever install.

Sure, teams need to be singing from the same sheet of music – but we must encourage people to bring their unique voice!

Managing in an echo chamber is like playing a video game on ‘easy mode’-you feel like a champion, but you’re not actually getting better!

Lead like it matters-because it does!

Building and strengthening discipline at work (having good habits, self-awareness, social awareness, etc.) involves consistently choosing long-term goals over short-term comfort - - creating neural pathways that reinforce self-control!

Happy New Year! I keep hearing, “I hope 2025 is gonna rock,”…hope is great for lottery tickets and the weather, but it’s not exactly a blueprint for world domination! 😂
A great year doesn’t just happen; it’s built through ownership, action, and intention. Hope is not a plan - a plan is a plan! 🙂

Yes, there’s a correlation between the Grinch and managers! Both juggle big responsibilities and rely on their “Max” (team) to execute plans. 😁 Like the Grinch’s journey, leadership is all about finding balance and building connection! 😃

Before we charge into the new year like a toddler with a crayon, let’s pause and ask some strategic and tactical questions to avoid drawing all over the walls! 🤣 As the year wraps up, it’s the perfect time for teams to sharpen their focus by asking strategic and tactical questions.

Holiday time at work can be a blast! But let’s be real-not everyone’s jolly about joining in the reindeer games.
If someone doesn’t want to participate, let it go!
Let people opt out without feeling guilty.

The holidays might deck the halls with distractions, but the to-do list doesn’t take a vacation! Keeping the sleigh on course means balancing personal and professional life. Hey-if Santa can deliver to billions in one night, we can knock out a few deadlines before taking time off for the Holidays! 😆
