How to Pick-My-Brain!

How to Pick-My-Brain! Back in 2010, I hosted ‘pick-my-brain’ sessions for members of my career coaching program. The time was dedicated mostly to one-on-one chats, but sometimes in groups. We would brainstorm and strategize, and each person would leave the session committed to taking action on at least one thing. In my current iteration of Pick-My-Brain Fridays, we meet for 30 minutes. This past Friday was different. I met face-to-face with one member at the Tea Room in Streetsville. (Tea…

What answers would you offer to these questions?

What answers would you offer to these questions? I had an exploratory call with a potential member of my new project, Aspire to GROW Leadership Academy, yesterday.

In some cases, that may be true. But we should keep in mind that AI has the potential to automate many tasks that are currently being performed by humans. This will then push some workers to acquire new skills…

Spring has sprung! What a great time to reflect on my W.O.T.Y. (Word of the Year), which is GRATEFUL.

Quit Playing Small… International Women’s Day is just around the corner, and the theme is hashtag#EmbraceEquity. How do we accomplish this? Sometimes it requires an assessment of the conversations we have with ourselves. If we don’t embrace ourselves as equal and capable, then no one will believe either. My client had an interview on Monday for a Director of Finance job. During our coaching session, she kept going back to what she lacked even though she had concluded she could…
