As 2023 draws to a close, it is the ideal moment for thoughtful reflection and intentional planning to help set goals for the year ahead. Rather than rushing into hopeful new year’s resolutions, take time to truly reflect first. […]
These are times of heightened emotions. What we are seeing, hearing and experiencing is through our emotions. I have studied, written about and applied emotional intelligence throughout my life and career, (sometimes without even realizing it at the time) to the point that it is embedded in my practice. However, it always serves us to take a step back, consider the current context and expand our understanding. To that end, let’s unpack: What has emotional intelligence got to do with [...]
For the first time in the history of the Fortune 500, women are leading 10% of the United States’ largest companies by revenue. It might not feel like much of a leap, but it is a milestone nonetheless.

I thought it would be useful to go over the three most common scenarios and share my tried and trusted strategies. #1 I really want to make a big change, how do I know if it’s the right move? When I hear that someone is looking to make big changes, [...]
By now we are familiar with the ‘Great Resignation’ as thousands of people embark on a COVID-induced career rethink. Gallup reported late last year that nearly half of U.S. workers are watching or hunting for job opportunities, while 35% of all U.S. workers have changed careers in the past three years. […]
Success comes in many shapes and sizes, personal and professional. It can be a big moment or a small step. I wrote recently about the importance of celebrating our wins and in this final article of the year I’d like to ask: What will success look like for you in 2022? And how are you making it happen? […]
