It makes sense to make it simple. It makes sense to check for understanding. It makes sense to start practicing these skills today.

Life if filled with moments of panic and crisis. Some are big, some are small. How we navigate these moments and the stories we tell ourselves afterwards are what shape us.

I do believe there is room for everyone in operations. I do believe that job qualifications have nothing to do with outward appearances. I believe that we need to keep taking those uncomfortable roles where we may feel slightly unwelcome. We need to be the ones that speak up. And we need to be the ones that listen when others speak up.

Each decision takes you on a path to grow or sustain the business. It is worth the risk to adapt and grow. I believe the world needs people that are willing to make the tough decisions. I believe your company needs a leader that is willing to be uncomfortable. Be a courageous leader. Evaluate what you can, manage what you can’t, and then decide.

As a leader, you create the culture around you. Public displays of rage will quickly diminish the productivity of your teams. Take a moment to think before you act. Remember that fear is not the same as respect.

Great leaders see the bigger picture and know where they can provide value to their teams. They give trust and assistance. They are rewarded by impactful results.

Tell your story by creating a shared understanding of the problem and conclusions. Be the expert your audience expects you to be.

What makes feedback effective? Effective feedback is immediate, specific and observable, and it describes consequences.

We spend a lot of time at work talking about how to become a leader. We talk about how to organize teams and how to set goals. We do not spend much time talking about the incredible responsibility of leadership.
