EMPOWERED LEADERS - You're #1 in 2024... according to me & Gartner


Welcome Back, Empowered Leader,

I'm so glad you're here, Reader!

What is HR's #1 Priority in 2024?

Hint: it's YOU!

According to Gartner, "Leader & Manager Development" is the #1 priority for HR in 2024.

You know that makes my heart happy... since this is my mission, too!

Our front-line & middle managers in the world of corporate have struggled for too long.

Being promoted with little to no training in leadership,

stuck between staff needs and meeting the next corporate objective,

while taking on more & more responsibility...

It's no wonder Gartner states that for managers, "the job is no longer manageable."

They go on to say that "instead of investing in traditional manager development programs…"

the focus should be to:

  • "reset expectations,
  • rewire manager habits &
  • remove process hurdles."

I couldn't agree more.

This is why I became a leadership coach for frontline & middle corporate leaders ...for you!

I was once you...

I felt the struggles of my colleagues...

I watched as we burned out, quit, or imploded...

I had bosses who were feeling the same & didn't know what to do...

No more!

Now is the time for us to speak up, to ask for better (not more), to be heard.

We deserve it... and they know it.

Welcome Back, Reader Ah, the generation gap! "They don't have any loyalty." "They are disengaged with work." "They are slackers with no work ethic." Oops, did you think we were talking about Gen Z or Millennials? Nope! These were the common statements the Boomer generation used to describe Gen X when they first entered the workforce. Boomers vs. Gen X... Boomers had valued long-term employment with a single company. Gen X had grown up witnessing corporate restructuring and layoffs in the 80s,...

Welcome Back, Reader Why do we call them "soft skills"? Soft skills are “soft, until you don’t have them, Then it’s hard.” --Chike Aguh, senior advisor of Harvard University’s Project on Workforce Aguh further suggested that the process of developing soft skills is similar to getting good at sports by adding, “You can’t read a book on how to do a jump shot.” I couldn't agree more with his sentiment! Organizations don't spend enough time assessing soft skills in job candidates, and much less...

Welcome Back, Reader Do Your Employees Feel Appreciated? Or do you just think they do? "There are two things people want more than sex and money: recognition and praise." - Mary Kay Ash, Founder of Mary Kay, Inc. While most everyone would like a raise or bonus, that monetary incentive is quickly forgotten. Appreciation doesn't have to cost anything. It can be as simple as a sincere 'thank you'... verbally or written. The problem? "While more than 80% of managers THINK that they are providing...
