As a young adult, I could not wait until I had the title of “manager”; that meant that I had taken a huge step in my career. I was managing not just my processes and myself, but also other people. I would see other managers in action as they barked orders at their team members […]
As we entered 2019, I set out on a mission to journal everyday for the year; 365 days of writing my thoughts, passions, fears, desires, etc. As I started, my goal was to journal for 40 consecutive days, just enough to make it a habit. After achieving my goal of 40 consecutive days, I was […]
I was never really into theater but as I was contemplating this post, I began researching the concept and phrase “exit stage left“; simply put, it means “an orderly departure, timed as not to distract or detract; to exit in a non-dramatic fashion, making way for more interesting events”. I am exiting stage left as […]
About a 3-years ago, I introduced a concept to the team I was working with that I called APP: Accountability, Passion, and Purpose. This was a framework that would help us work towards success but also help build the culture that we needed for our team. The initial idea was that it was circular in […]

At the beginning of this year, I took on the challenge of attempting to journal frequently. Don’t think of this as a new year resolution (as I am not a fan of those) but rather one of the goals I’d like to accomplish this year. My realistic goal was not to journal every day, as […]
Since finishing my dissertation in November 2018, I’ve had a little more time on my hands to read. It’s almost like I’ve been reading in an attempt to fill a void that has been left in me since I’m not continually researching and writing. I thoroughly enjoyed the process of writing and publishing my dissertation […]
Influencing People is Hard Work I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how to have forward momentum in business without destroying everyone and everything in your path. I’ve always been known as “the nice guy” around the office; I don’t take that as a criticism but rather as a complement. I’d much rather be known […]
I’ve spent a bit more time this past month reading. I tend to read a lot but it is often journals rather than books (that’s a function of being a graduate student). I’ve been really pleased with a few of my recent finds and thought I would share some of those with you all. Below, […]
