Leading Yourself in 2023 ABC Goal Setting
The turning of the year is a human construct, but we still imbue it with all kinds of meaning. I don’t go in much for resolutions, and the statistics about people actually keeping those resolutions (Save more! Eat healthy! Call my mom!) is kind of laughable.

Read MoreWhat Makes a Powerful Question?
Hello Leaders, One of the most common questions I am asked as a coach is this: what makes for a powerful question? I’m glad it comes up so often.
