@RiseAtDawnMedia @StuLierich @CristinaEspinal @lessaraebiger @HeyJeffFelten Thanks for the shoutout. Appreciate being included in such a wonderful group. Calling out some people that have been inspirational to me: ✨ @DenisLabelleX ✨ @Pam_Rubin1 ✨ @pialeichter ✨ @HendoAi ✨ @ConsultGently
Having a library of random ideas to fall back on when the writing tank is empty helps a lot.
Being open to different opportunities is not just good for work, friends, family and fun… …it builds resilience. Being open to fresh ideas as they arise, means you’re also better equipped to respond to the unexpected. Whether good or not-so-good.

Consulting take on an old fav quote: "Packing for the airport is a task that expands to the amount of time available." Give it a week. And it takes a week. Give it half an hour. And it takes half an hour. But you're at greater risk of needing to buy a toothbrush at the…
Picking up your own machete to hack your own way thru the jungle of life…builds strength, confidence and resilience. And new paths and clearings open up. At times you need others alongside you, but you can also do a lot more on your own than you might think.

@Camp4 Ambition, as we know it, seems to have lost its way. It's a confusing concept. It's all wrapped up with the pursuit of career advancement, the grind of work, an endless chase for wealth. That's probably BS. What if the true mark of ambition was actually about mastering the…
I've been a long time WFH-when-it-works fan. For years before 2020, I was privileged to work with and around people at or for large organisations where flexible work practices worked. For years. It made sense. To employees, to customers and ultimately to the business. But to…

Being easy to do business with is as important for your employees and partners or subcontractors…as it is for your clients. Define scope sensibly. Treat fairly. Pay promptly.

Good strategies rely on good understanding of psychology. Customers' wants and needs. Employees' behaviours. Stakeholders' motivations.

Good consultants convince with data. Great consultants convince with stories. Backed up by data.
@allenholub I wonder when it will come full circle when physical industries will start talking about their profession in software metaphors e.g. updating software, refactoring etc. Software enhanced products are already there e.g. hardware at the speed of software..
Consulting word of the week : Prudence Sometimes it's best to hold back from saying what you think needs saying. • It might distract people from the key matter in hand. • It might confuse people who hold different context or perspectives. • It might provoke an awkward…
If you want to truly enjoy a particular cuisine…you need to invest in the time, cost and effort to experience it in the country it came from. If you want to truly expand your thinking, carve out a few hours to have a deep conversation with someone who’s an expert in an area…
Do not be unreasonable. Careers are built on decades, not months. Give yourself some time. Be impatient with learning, but patient with outcomes.
When a simple question made the room fall silent. 🧵
Consulting take on an old fav quote: “To lose one client, Mr Worthing, may be regarded as a misfortune… To lose two looks like carelessness.”
Good consultants read a lot around their subject, their clients, their methods and their thinking. Great consultants just read a lot.
Consulting take on an old fav quote: "Sorry for the 20 slides with dense wordy paragraphs of text in 6pt font and too many spidery graphs and tables of figures... ...I didn't have time to distil it down to 2 with plenty of white space and the key points in a readable font…

@ConsultGently First, that was not my impression.( of you) Second, some never learn….
I don't understand people who outsource their social media content. This is your first point of contact with the world and you let someone else pretend to be you? No wonder audiences crave authenticity.
You should be skeptical of every piece of entrepreneurship advice you see on social media (yes, even mine). Because for every success story you read about, there are probably a hundred (or more) entrepreneurs who crashed and burned doing nearly the same thing. But you don’t…
All week, man
@ToddBrison One Question Remains: How long did you search for it?
@Bell99Lesley True listening is not something we are taught, especially the younger generations which I fall into. I'm finding more and more that one's capacity to deeply listen, not just to the words themselves but the place they are coming from, is one's degree of leadership.
@ConsultGently 😂 I was reflecting on this today. It's another one of those terms that's been hijacked. And I'm going to stop using it. Ive already noticed that individuals don't self identify with it . They see the behaviours in others, and not themselves. (One for our X spaces!)
Such a great visual Thanks @ConsultGently 💕

When you have a daily writing habit, things will always crop up and stop you from writing a day here or there. The goal is to get back in and not let one bad day turn into a daily *not*-writing habit.
If you're afraid to say no, it's easy to get overcommitted. Because the more you take on, the less gets done. And what's worse? If you're crunched for time, shortcuts can drive down quality. Instead, build your credibility by proactively identifying the decisions needed and…

@ConsultGently Oh yeah, this hits. The task always expands.... I also feel that I work better when that compression of the time is there. Always best with a deadline.
