Unlearn what you think you know…

And begin your Leadership posture through a new lens. The People, the Environment and the Community Culture are constantly evolving and will be different to your world view. And what you know, might not work quite as you expected. This doesn’t have to mean you’ve failed or you’re wrong. Now is the time to listen…

Paralysis By Analysis

You can do all the reading, listening and watching you like. Until the day comes when you have a choice – Do… Or do not. (Thanks Yoda) I vote for – Let’s do something. Because, otherwise – WHY bother spending all that time reading, listening and watching? Not much point if you’re not going to…

So, you want to write a bestseller?

Well, go on then! What’s stopping you? How about you start with writing first? Then you will have something to sell. Then do The Work of making it a bestseller later. Because ultimately, you don’t get to decide if it is best. You only get to decide when you start. If you have been forwarded…

We’re all screwed… So just enjoy the ride!

Instead of using quantity to create quality. Your skills require improvement. The skills are good, but you could be braver. You over estimated. You under estimated.…

Finding Your Tribe

They like talking and conversation to bring out new ideas and ways to implement them. They do not fear change when they can make small steps towards change, observing the effects, testing and adjusting. Fear of change is still present and yet they understand to manage it appropriately. They are rewarded or recognised for their…

Assumptions are simply guesswork.

Assertions require testing to find out the truth.  You could assume that in a particular geographical location, people can’t afford it. You could assert, regardless of location, exciting projects and change is happening and it’s not an exclusive venture reserved for the big cities. The problem isn’t funding or the places. And it’s not even…

Forgive me Dream, for I have procrastinated…

It has been too many days since my last reflection. And now I’m feeling lost and overwhelmed. I got distracted by a series on Netflix and so far I’ve lost 2 weeks… I had this section I needed to re-do on the website and then ended up down the webpage publishing rabbit hole… I’m feeling…
