There are moments in life when things just aren’t fair - you can either spend 20 years in leadership coaching or learn from someone who spent 20 years in leadership coaching.

We are living in interesting times with lots of challenges and lots of opportunities.

All this and more in this episode of The Ripple…

What have we learned as leaders in this past year? Hopefully, there are some real positive things that we have done well.

Would you follow you? Everybody needs to face that necessary discomfort of being willing to look in the mirror, especially leaders.

It literally gets into your shadow. S…

A purpose-less leader is like a rudderless ship, just floating in no particular direction or maybe not even moving at all.

Purpose-driven leaders are motivated and focused. So how…

What is the power of pause? It forces us to stop, take time to reflect, and be present with those around you.
