𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗺𝘆 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 – 𝗽𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲! It’s the end of the Australian Financial year and I often get the question, “𝗜𝗳 𝗜 𝗽𝗮𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘄𝗲 𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿?”

To which I, of course, reply with a resounding yes!

It’s been a while since you’ve heard from me.

I’ve been traveling for a conference and to spend my birthday/4th of July with my sister and best friend.

I love to spend my birthday in the US because it’s the day before the 4th of July – which makes it a 2-day celebration, in the middle of summer – with fireworks!

Unfortunately, the following weekend I attended the National Speakers Convention in Nashville, where I promptly got Covid and spent the next weeks isolating instead of going on a road trip with my best friend. The times we live in!

Isolation gave me lots of thinking time – and lots of time to strategize on new content, so expect fairly regular updates now through the end of the year.

My head is just buzzing with ideas.

Starting with 2 new masterclasses.
Feel free to grab your spot at one or both – and invite friends and colleagues.

The first is 𝗥𝗲𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗔𝗰𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

While this is a US stat, I believe the trend is definitely global.

I’ve often said that Covid accelerated other workforce trends that had been building for years. I think what we see with this graph is the result of...

I loved this article about the things companies get wrong when writing job descriptions. I only disagree with their first point. A long job description/job ad isn’t necessarily a bad thing. I’ve helped clients write very lengthy but VERY compelling job descriptions that vividly describes the company culture and values, outlines what the prospective candidate can achieve in the role and what they need to bring to the table (innate abilities and strengths) to be successful.

Thank you Sparks+Partners Consulting Engineers for inviting me to run one of my favorite workshops, “Soar with Your Strengths” for your end of year offsite last week. The main reason I love this workshop is that it gives you permission to stop beating yourself up about things that you aren’t good at and will never be good at by developing strategies to reach the same outcomes using strengths you do have.
