The Benefits of Online Learning
You may have found yourself in a holding-pattern since quarantine started, and even as you cautiously began making strides toward “normal.” But as social distancing and limited capacity guidelines continue, it’s time to break the holding-pattern. Rather than waiting for things to return to the way they once were, it’s time to start making the most of what is. You can motivate your team today. You can collaborate and reduce conflict today.

How to Lead in a Crisis
Do you remember how mesmerizing a kaleidoscope was as a kid? With every slight turn of the dial, every brilliant color shifted to form new shapes just as fascinating as the one before. You watched the chaos of colors settle into beautiful pictures, each highlighting different hues of red, green, or blue. When our world sits in the middle of a crisis, it’s difficult to recognize any semblance of beauty. The distraction from the media, the fear from your neighbors, and the unrest you feel as you ...

Get Results from Your Team When No One’s at the Office
At the office, you could hear the voices of your team. You could pick up on their tone and volume to discern stress, conflict, or success. You could hear phones ringing, fingers typing. You could see meetings starting, projects ending, performance thriving. But at home? You hear meals cooking and children playing. You see schoolwork on the kitchen table, kids sprawled out on the couch, or that unfinished home project. You feel distracted in your own work and wonder how your team is doing. Are th...

How to Navigate Through a Crisis
Almost overnight your world was turned upside down. Rather, the whole world was turned upside down. COVID-19 blew through, shattering schedules, disrupting relationships, and overturning job security. Now, we wait to see how the dust settles. We wonder what life will look like in the coming months.

The Power in Focusing on Solving Problems as a Leader
A new trend is emerging in the leadership of today, problem-led leaders. These leaders are different than other more standard leader archetypes meaning that are driven by problems in need of a multi-faceted solution. These leaders are the glue of a group of people from different parts of the organization brought together with the sole purpose of literally problem solving. These leaders tend to see a bigger picture and are well ingrained enough in the organization to pull the best people to contr...

5 Characteristics of Effective Teams
Imagine, it’s a random Tuesday morning and you and your team are on a plane headed to… Don’t get too comfortable imagining a conference center, hotel with a lounge, or a boardroom. Instead, picture a deserted island, a la the TV show, Survivor. Before a Jeff Probst lookalike has the opportunity to welcome you to the island, you, as the leader of your team need to make a plan.

New Year’s Resolutions in the Workplace

About 60% of the population admits to making them every year while only a staggering 8% actually are successful in completing them. While that 8% can be intimidating as self-doubt may tend to creep in and have even the best of us wondering if we have what it takes be ...

posted on
Critical thinking ranks highest in the most in-demand skills for job candidates, however these skills are often found to be lacking. A Wall Street Journal analysis of standardized test scores given to collegiate freshman and seniors at 200 colleges found that the average graduate (even from some of the most prestigious universities) show little or no improvement in critical thinking skills over the course of their four years in college.
