Blog postI’m usually very stoic and emotionally strong, but my Monkey-Mind has been out of control lately. We often feel stress, worry, anger or other negative emotions all from some kind of fear. It’s not our fault, the amygdala part of our brain overdeveloped to protect us from saber-tooth tigers and even though the tigers are gone, the amygdala keeps trying to protect us. One secret to an amazing life is being able to just “note” your emotions, without letting them hook you and carry you

Blog postI used to believe “live every day as if it were your last.” But if today was my last day, I’d eat cheese fries for eight straight hours and give all my money away. Tomorrow would be painful.
I used to have a big annual goal, which worked great for achieving that goal but wreaked havoc in non-goal areas of my life.
Many people choose a word for the year, in order to focus on the thing they need most in their life. I like that idea, but it never felt right for me.

Blog postWell, some years you win, others you learn. 2019 was a learning year. 🙂
More important to me than New Year’s resolutions is to take an hour or two to scroll through my calendar from the previous year and to recall things that went well, things that didn’t, and any lessons or reminders I should carry forward. If you practice Secret #3 from my book 15 Secrets Successful People Know About Time Management, and live from your calendar instead of a to-do list, it’s really easy to look back -
Blog postAs a passionate student of leadership, I’ve long been fascinated by how organizations–both large and small–go about training their managers. Often, they simply don’t. Others have robust programs that cover dozens of competencies in a blended delivery system. I finally had a chance to write an in-depth blog post on new manager training over at the LEADx website. It covers […]

Blog postWhat if our managers don’t need more content, but rather more support applying the stuff they’ve already learned?
I finally had a chance to write a long article for the LEADx blog about leadership nudges. Behavioral nudge theory, from Dr. Richard Thaler, has been shown to dramatically change behaviors–and in our case, can change leadership behaviors for the better.
Give a read to my article on behavioral nudges for leadership, you won’t be disappointed!

Blog postCan a single word generate a 7x increase in sales in one year? It was in 2004 when I met a pharmaceutical brand director (I’ll call him Dave) who was credited with turning around the sales of a new cholesterol drug. His company had launched the product with high expectations, but in its first year sales totaled a disappointing $129 […]

Blog postMy mission is to spark 100 million leaders in the next 10 years.
That’s a lot of people.

Blog postI’ve long been captivated by the idea of creating a leadership “user’s manual.”
The basic idea is that managers should create a short guide to their personality, work style and, yes, even quirks, so that their direct reports would know how to best work with them. I also suspected that this kind of “user’s manual” would serve as a good reminder to myself about my unique traits. (“What’s my MBTI? Oh, I’m an I,N…uh, T…hmmm.”)
I first heard of this “user manual” idea when I read A -
Blog postLast night celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain killed himself. Three days ago fashion designer Kate Spade killed herself. These celebrity suicides cause us to recall Robin Williams suicide four years ago. Celebrity suicides seem to hit us–and certainly make headlines–far more than the “other” 50,000 suicides that happen in America every year. We seem shocked. “They had it all–fame, fortune, success, […]
