Although I’m no expert in boats, whether you anchor from the bow or stern can have a big impact on outcomes. Do it the right way (based on the design of the boat), you can keep your boat roughly confined to an area. Do it the wrong way, and you could flood, capsize, or sink your boat. When the anchor is up (e.g., removed from use), there are possibilities with a skilled person taking the boat out to new destinations.

Witness the rise of Servant Leadership. This means a better DNA of leaders in organizations. Servant leaders are out there. Are you one? Revolutionary change is brewing. This radical transformation germinated from the dead works of corporate ignorance and political fat cats that do not care for people. Employees are tired, frustrated, and fed up with these kinds of leaders.

Consulting is one of the most prestigious careers you can pursue upon graduation.

This Sunday morning, I tried to spend time thinking about how I could help people. Could I help someone to get a job? Perhaps make a valuable introduction for someone? Give them an insight? I wrote some messages to take action. It felt good to apply energy to that type of effort. Reciprocity is a powerful influence on behavior. The idea is that when you give to someone, they are more likely to be receptive to giving something back in the future.

The transition to remote and hybrid work arrangements—where employees may be onsite only a few days each week or month, or not at all in some cases—led to a great number of benefits, both for employers and workers. Companies have more flexibility to manage their real estate assets, with options to convert excess office space into areas that better suit their long-term needs.

This recent study shows some pretty dramatic benefits to the overall economy in pursuing an equity agenda—to the tune of nearly $26 trillion over the 30 years analyzed! We should all know by now that the unemployment and educational attainment gaps, particularly between Blacks and Hispanics and their white counterparts, are the biggest culprits.

It’s that time of year when many of us think and talk about setting goals. Yet how many of us set ourselves ambitious goals at the start of a year, only for our motivation to ebb away way as the months go on? We then end up being hard on ourselves at the end of year, telling ourselves, “Next year it will be different”. And the vicious circle continues.

First, a digression. My wonderful, lovely, amazing cat decided at 1am this morning that it was feeding time. She has a very loud meow, so it was like a mini siren going off in the hallway. And the living room. And the kitchen. And then? After I fed her at 1am? She wanted company at 2am. ?. Suffice it to say, I am wiped out today. Very low energy (and low on spoons).
