Don’t Be A Jerk: An Enhanced Leadership Style

No Comments
| Leadership

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. As I was making this long […]

Please, Don’t Call Me Boss

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 […]

Exit Stage Left

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 […]

| ERSON's Desk, Leadership

About a 3-years ago, I introduced a concept to the team I was working with that I called APP: Accountability, Passion, and Purpose.

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?

Learning from Mowing the Lawn

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 […]

Wisdom in the Workplace

No Comments
| Leadership

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

| ERSON's Desk, Leadership

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 […]

Radical Transparency

It is in our human nature to have frustration. It can be small or large, but regardless the size, frustration will exist. Take the example of an everyday occurrence of driving to work; in my short 25-minute drive each morning, I encounter frustration at multiple levels. It could be that I’m running a few minutes […]

How Leaders Balance Exploitation and Exploration

No Comments
| Leadership

I often think about innovation as someone who is working on a project or idea that is new or different. An innovator is typically thought of as being first; this would include being first to market with a product or the first to implement a new process. When I put that in context of what […]
