Working from home suits some people better than others. In my coaching practice, I see some leaders thriving In it and others barely getting by. The difference is often their personality. If your personality allows you to easily merge your work and home life, working from home will likely be a breeze. But for those who function best with a clear line between the two, working from home can be frustrating and exhausting.

It seems as if every organization today is looking to “get lean.” I’ve visited hundreds of companies that claim they’re transforming their business with Lean methodologies. They’ve rolled out fanfare that—to the untrained eye—gives the impression that these transformations are rooted in rigor and discipline. Signboards, banners, Gemba boards, and tape on the floor all proclaim, “We’re taking this seriously.”.

Minimizing losses increases profit-making potential as scarce resources are being put to good use. A vast majority of entrepreneurs, 80% to be precise, fund their enterprises out of pocket, and managing cash flow is a major challenge as most have no prior busi

Politicians are often guilty of what George Orwell famously termed “doublespeak”, with their communication riddled with language designed to obscure and muddy our understanding. It perhaps goes without saying that this kind of language is the last thing needed during a crisis, and this is underlined in a new study by Cardiff University, which explored the importance of political communication during the covid-19 pandemic.

If you want to build a successful business or career, stop keeping your eye on the big prize. Instead, focus on little victories. Okay, you might be thinking, “Wait. Did I read that right?

But what if I were to tell you that this search is mostly in vain—especially today during the COVID 19 crisis and all else that is going on in the world?
