Revisiting the Seven Habits of Highly Effective People for New Times

I read, skim, and listen to a lot of books! When I look back at the past year, I think I have tallied almost 150. Some are life-changing, some are forgettable, and some only have one or two nuggets, and you end up asking, "Why did I read that whole book just to get those two concepts?" I love it when a book stays with you and becomes a part of your way of life. These are the books that, once you finish them, you can't wait to …

"To dare is to lose one's footing momentarily. Not to dare is to lose oneself." - Soren Kierkegaard

Have you ever had the sinking realization that you have become a version of yourself that isn't operating at the level you once were? It can feel like a gentle drift of the current that subtly pulls you off track, leading you miles away from where you initially aimed.

The question is, what do you do when you find …

"The gem cannot be polished without friction, nor man perfected without trials." – Confucius

Nestled on the edge of a cliff in the Himalayan mountains, the Paro Taktsang Temple, also known as the Tiger's Nest Monastery, in Bhutan offers more than just breathtaking views; it serves as a poignant metaphor for leadership. This sacred site demands a strenuous hike to reach its serene chambers, much like the challenging path leaders often face in their quest for wisdom, authenticity, and impact. But…

"The true essence of leadership is temporal agility – navigating the past with empathy, the future with vision, and the present with actionable intent."

As leaders, we are often encouraged to focus on the here and now or to look to the horizon, planning the next milestone. But what if the key to impactful leadership lies in a different place – across the continuum of time itself?

When I work with clients, I introduce them to the Time-Travel Model for transformational leadership. This three-dim…

“Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things." – Robert Brault

In a world that often emphasizes the importance of material possessions and external achievements, it can be easy to overlook the simple pleasures that bring us joy and fulfillment. Research shows that true happiness does not come from the big moments but from the little moments that make up our everyday lives.

Fulfillment comes from the simple things, the little moments that we often…

A proactive culture is one where communication is not just about responding to messages or putting out fires but rather anticipating and addressing issues before they become problems. It's a culture where everyone takes ownership of their communication and understa…

Unlike most landmarks, its appeal doesn't lie in its finished state but in its eternal state of becoming.…
