Lead with Love

In the pre-pandemic world when I would step out on stage to talk about leading with love, I’d notice some initial discomfort in the audience.  They shifted in their seats or broke eye contact with me until I explained what I meant.  Now with everything we’ve been through, people are craving better relationships with everyone in their life, including their leaders, and I don’t notice that awkwardness anymore.

The Shift to Solutions-Thinking

There is a lot of hand-wringing these days over problems. Problems in the world and in the country.  Problems with the pandemic and with healthcare.  Problems in the real estate industry and inventory shortage.  Mahatma Gandhi famously directed us to, “Be the change you wish to see in the world,” and being the change starts by shifting focus from the problem to the solution, from inertia to action.
