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.

A New Yorker Cartoon about the sad reality of how people are promoted

Welcome Back, Reader New Yorker Cartoon by Kendra Allenby “At this point in your career, your only possible promotion is to management, where you will stop doing the work you love and use a skill set you don’t have and we don’t teach.” It would be funny, if it wasn't true As a leader who has had employees say they don't want to go into leadership but they still want to be recognized or promoted in some way, why does it have to be like this? ..."your only possible promotion is to management"....

A road sign that reads "Burnout" is pointing forward against a harsh, sunny sky.

Welcome Back, Reader It seems like everyone is burned out... And if you don't think you're burned out, every article you read tells you that you are! How do you know for sure? Sometimes all you have to do is ask your family or friends... they see it, they feel it. It has to do with how much energy you have left AFTER you leave the office. How often you feel that you HAVE to check in on work after hours... even if just for ONE quick thing. How truly PRESENT are you with your family and...

Welcome Back, Reader The Elusive Mystery of Balance... Honest vs. Kind Work vs. Personal Trust vs. Oversight Soft vs. Hard Skills Experience vs. Competency The list goes on and on and on... We may rebel against the majority to move the needle to one side or the other. We may consider ourselves (or others) weak or strong based on which side of the scale we favor. We may search for the happy medium, yet often find ourselves in a comfort zone leaning one way or the other. The reality is even...
