When people talk about “company culture,” it often feels soft — like a vague vibe you can’t quite define but everyone likes to say is important. In reality, culture isn’t a perk or a poster on the breakroom wall. It’s the invisible architecture that shapes how your business runs when no one’s watching. In that […]
Each year, aircraft owners face the ritual of an annual inspection—a deep dive into the condition of their airplane, required by the FAA to ensure it remains safe to fly. It’s a comprehensive process where an A&P (Airframe & Powerplant) mechanic with an inspection authorization (IA) meticulously examines the aircraft from nose to tail, ensuring […]
I was recently asked to share my leadership style. Immediately, my brain started to conjure up all the strong, inspirational words, some of which are already running through your mind: Authentic, transformational, servant leader, coaching, results-focused, passionate, purpose-driven … the list went on in my head for several minutes.

Why do you get out of bed every morning? What motivates you to do what you do? Why do you push yourself so hard and drive toward excellence in your workplace or with your children? How do you teach purpose to your children if you don’t seemingly have purpose yourself? These are the questions that […]
I mow my yard; I have since … well, since I was about 6-years old. When I was a kid, I did it as a way to make some cash. I could push a lawn mower around the yard for an hour and make $10: Yes, please. Fast forward to my adult days, its not […]
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the concept of wisdom. This all started as I began to reflect on some personal advice I had given a colleague a few weeks ago; the advice was well-received and I’m sure it was helpful, but it made me wonder if the advice I gave was wise? Meaning, […]
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.
