Preparing for the Camino – What I Learned From My Meetup Hiking Group

Be The Change!

Leader of the Future – Part 2 Do You Have the “GWC?”

Are you a doer-manager? Are you the person who keeps doing many of the tasks that you did before you were promoted to manager, director, VP or even to the C-suite? Because we all know: no one can do the job as well as you… it takes too long to train someone… it’s easier and […]
