What we don’t know
I belong to an amazing consulting group where once a month we have very stimulating conversations and I always learn something. I hope all of you have a place like that, where you can learn and share which is so powerful! Last night we looked at what we might not...
What some jobs really cost.
We work at companies for a variety of reasons; some are monetary and some are based on values and learning. For whatever reason we take a job, staying there can sometimes cost us more than we bargained for. Three interesting examples came to me recently. In the...
What is your why?
Yes, I am finally back to blogging: I have had so many ideas over the last month. The one theme that continues to reverberate is what is your “why” For me, this began by seeing Simon Sinek www.startwithwhy.com on a TED conference. If you haven’t seen him I urge you...
What’s the story?

What does quality mean?
I have to buy a washing machine; after almost 30 years, my Maytag died. In doing my shopping research I have learned a lot. Maytag was bought by Whirlpool and they no longer put the emphasis on the inner workings but on the bells and whistles that they think...
What do they want?
Devon is going to be 12 this Friday and he is asked what he wants to do and what he wants for his birthday. Everyone gets frustrated when he says he doesn’t know or reverts back to something he already has. This is no different than your clients; they don’t know what...
Well????
The other day I was in Barnes and Noble waiting and started reading “Rework” by Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson; it’s a fast read. And although I still have to finish it the 1st half reminded me of several points. There is nothing really new out there There...
