People will undoubtedly say, “there is no way this guy is old enough to have experienced working in the 80’s and 90’s,” and they would be right. However, as part of any sound Executive Search professional’s toolkit, research is a useful addition, and in many ways, often goes a long way. So, how did it all look back in the ‘good ol’ days’ and how and why did it change, well; Back in the late 80’s and 90’s top leadership roles recruited for, in the boardroom and on the executive commit

I read a wonderful article in Newsweek the other day — “More Senior Americans Are Working Past Retirement, Willingly” (link). There was a powerful quote from Dr. Leonard Bailey , a 74 year-old heart surgeon who still puts in 80-90 hour weeks and has no plans to retire, “There’s no reason to stop. If you’re constantly thinking new thoughts and dealing with new problems, it refreshes your brain cells and makes new connections.” I LOVE IT.

“Sure, I’ll have that to you tomorrow morning!” How many times have you been promised something only to be disappointed hours (or days) later when that promise was broken? Though there may be many reasons why a person or team misses their commitment – some of those even legitimate reasons – you end up on the short end of the stick.

H alford E. Luccock once said that no one can whistle a symphony. It takes an orchestra to play it. How profound. How beautiful are these two sentences. And how applicable to our lives. Life wasn’t mean to be done alone. We were meant to have friends and family and acquaintances surround us. Much like Halford Luccock’s quote about the orchestra, we can say the same applies to our lives.

I n my years of leadership, I’ve noticed a frustrating phenomenon. That is the process in which we make simple concepts into extremely complicated and convoluted processes. Instead of leading simply, we make it so that we’re leading complexly. Then we wonder why leadership is so hard. We Make Leadership Harder Than It Needs To Be. Leadership can appear very complex when you look at it from the outside.

People like me Lord, teach us to pray… (Luke 11:1). I don’t know about you, but I often feel like the disciples. I am still learning to pray. The fact is I have more knowledge of prayer than I have substance and practice of prayer. Just being honest. But, I do have some suggestions. Here are 5 suggestions for amateur prayers – like me: Be respectful.

Chapter 6 (continued). “Jeez! Look at that guy. Can you believe him? He looks like a dog I used to own. Get a load of that hair. What a fleabag!” He gave me a conspiratorial nudge on the arm. “What sewer did he sleep in last night?”. The current object of Cam’s attention was, indeed, a little scruffy looking, I suppose. He was tall and wiry, and his too-tan arms poked out from the cutoff sleeves of a blue tie-dyed T-shirt.

Tim Gouw. It’s no secret that our digital communication tools are overwhelming us. A Deloitte study found that U.S. workers (in aggregate) look at their phones almost 8 billion times a day , and research shows that U.S. productivity has waned since the introduction of the smartphone. But the world of business needs a way to bring people together to share information and explain ideas, and to get them to reach for the same goals.

Juan Di Nella. A new poll by the Pew Research Center suggests that more than half of men think sexism is a thing of the past; in contrast, only about one-third of women agree. One reason for the disagreement may stem from misunderstandings about the kinds of behavior that constitute sexism. Indeed, an important body of research instigated by Susan Fiske of Princeton and Peter Glick of Lawrence University demonstrates that prejudice toward women can take obvious and not-so-obvious forms.

Your camping trip is coming up. You and a friend go shopping for a tent. Spotting one you like, you both crawl inside to check the capacity. But there’s something unusual about this scenario: You’re in Boston. Your buddy is in Houston. And neither of you is anywhere near a sporting goods store. Virtual reality (VR), along with its sister technology augmented reality (AR), offers retailers the opportunity to transform how people shop.
