They simply dropped the ball. After the surgery, the medical team had a breakdown in communication. Better said, there was no communication to the family about the surgery, the outcome or next steps. She stepped into the midst of the confusion and frustration.

I am a coffee person. I have my regular Starbucks order locked and loaded (venti skinny French vanilla latte), and sometimes when I’m traveling, getting my caffeine fix becomes a real priority in my day.

We all have been through them. Those times when things seem to pile up.  One thing after another, until the path forward seems incredibly hard and overwhelming. This family is in one of those difficult seasons of life.

You might never know. She certainly would not call attention to herself. However, if you were to assess the VIP roles within our organization, she would land near the top. She works behind the scenes to support, organize, lead and execute too many tasks to mention here.

A CEO of a large international company shared with me his adopted philosophy on leadership and life. He is someone who I have known for many years, and who has consistently demonstrated strong leadership.

Some would say that it is a rare thing to find one who stays true to his or her word. With the fast-paced competitive environment that we live in, it appears that keeping your word may be becoming less important to those who lead.

In 2020, I am focusing on the word FOCUS. I want to be more intentional about life and the choices I make. One of the things that I am going to focus on is gratitude.

Meet Harper. She is almost two years old and is the daughter and granddaughter of our close friends. We recently had the opportunity to spend several days vacationing at the beach with Harper and her family.

It has happened again. The Christmas season for our part of the world is in full swing. Something is about to take place that happens every year.

He asked if my son was ok and I said yes, there were no injuries.  What Tony said next caused my world to stop. 

We were in the midst of great leadership. Our Eagle team decided to invite children along with family members who are involved in a community, after-school tutoring and mentoring program to attend our Christmas party.

Meet Ann. If there is anyone who is on her game it's Ann. She is the Executive Professional who supports the CEO of a large corporation. 

They were tired, living in filth, sick and had very little provisions. This is how the first group of Pilgrims met the New World.

It was a busy restaurant at dinner time. I anticipated a delay in service and a crowded noisy experience. Then I met Kenton.

I was talking with a friend about his son's recent tour in the military. He shared with me some of the sacrifices that men and women make to serve their country.

Recently, I was speaking at a leadership conference and we had a technical glitch. The video I had planned to play suddenly did not work

Meet Ian. But it better be quick, because he is moving. This executive is going to invest in another part of the mega corporation in which he is a leader.

We have driven by it hundreds of times. It's just a local dive with a small sign out front. Not wanting to fight the crowds on a Friday night, we decided to take a chance on the little hidden restaurant. What we found was a wonderful surprise. 

I'm at my favorite place in the world working on a new book project. I have a routine and ritual that I have established to help me meet my goals.
