Strategies for Managing Change
Change is a constant in our lives, and as a result we’re always looking for strategies for managing change. Do you know how you actually process change on a personal level?

Leer másCreating a Great Place to Work
Recently, a friend sent me a Harvard Business Review blog that helped me think about how I can make my office a truly great place to come to work.

Leer másWant Innovation? Get Out on the Golf Course
I hope I don’t turn away non-golfers with this blog, but it’s Friday, the weather (at our office in New York, at least) is beautiful, and I’m wishing I was hitting the links. That being said, I’m not going to go into a “sports as life or business metaphor”…too much. So here is why getting…
Leer másThe Happiness Index
Well, this blog isn’t exactly about a specific index, but wouldn’t it be nice to know just how happy we are?

This is evident in Deloitte’s latest report on Talent Management, Talent Edge 2020, which we tweeted yesterday, and which holds fascinating findings based on…
Leer másGoal Setting with Impact
Goals and objectives can be like an exercise routine or a gym membership. For those of us who are committed regulars, the process can be a bit routine and rote, but at least we are checking in regularly. Then there are those of us who start with the best intentions, set a great plan, but…
Leer másMaking Your Employees Idea Generators
How does your organization get at ideation? Does your organization even know what ideation truly is? Ideation (according to Wikipedia) is the process of generating ideas, communicating those ideas, and developing the ideas to fruition. So what does that really mean? Well, firstly, it means something different than innovation—that business buzzword catchall for creativity, idea…
Leer másWorkplace Assessments- and How to Make Them Actually Work
When it comes to assessment, companies look to review every aspect of the organization, some using a comb with fine enough teeth to catch every minute detail. P&L statements, earnings reports, revenue numbers, and other financial elements are scrutinized (and rightfully so) to an incredible degree. But what about assessing the very generators of these…
