Season Three: a work in progress
As much as it pains me, I may move this newsletter back to Substack with a new purpose: as my brands grow, I crave a place where I can be just me, in all my rough draft stream of consciousness. For now here, perhaps once I regain access to my

New today: Introducing Evolutionary OKRs
Hi, friends! Before the worky stuff, if you're not listening to KEXP's International Womens' Day special sets today, you're missing out. Take a minute to click over and start the stream and then come back. Really. It's that good. I'll wait. Give me the tunes OK. Now that we've got

A holiday wish for rest, recovery, and renewal
Happy almost holidays. Later today, I'll close myoffice for a week of rest, recovery, and recharging before beginning 2023. Before I go, though, I wanted to share a parting thought with you as we all shift into a new year where the only thing that's certain is more change. This
Friday Thinkers, thanks to science
Happy Friday! Well team, we made it through another week. I'm a strange mix of busy with year-end details and finding myself with chunks of time to focus, which has been amazing. I'm taking advantage of time to make our training materials more usable, making progress on the book in

A quick note for this Friday morning: Registration closes on Monday, and class starts on Tuesday for our November cohort of No BS OKRs. Would you like to join me for this short, sweet, results-focused session to set fresh objectives, and meaningful measures of success and progress to start your
A dose of serendipity for your Friday
I'd hoped to get this out early this morning, but the day got away from me in favor of some quality time with my team, my book manuscript in progress, and a few of my favorite clients, so I'm going to consider late better than never. I've been in a
A quick favor to ask
Friends who operate in business circles: I have a favor to ask! Would you be willing to help me spread the word in your professional network about a new training opportunity I'm launching in November? I have to achieve a minimum waitlist to launch the course via a specific online
Always racing, always learning
We're home from the MotoAmerica racing season, and I'm digging out from some exhaustion from this year's push on that front. We had a few big setbacks in the early season that made for a very challenging first season in Stock 1000, and ended the season very lean and mean,
