Remote collaboration can fail hard 😰. Some experiences are more painful than others. Virtual meetings can be super-connecting and others do the opposite, leaving us feeling: 😭 disconnected, 😣 jarred, or 😒 turned off.

April is Autism appreciation month. 💛

Many of our leaders, team members, and partners in tech are on the Autism spectrum. Often undiagnosed, often without workplace adjustments or accommodations, and often actively masking or dissimulating their struggl…https://t.co/SY3iQ3EQ5y

It is not so much about how we show appreciation, it is about actually doing it. Like all habits, it takes time and effort to shape our appreciation muscles.

One of my CEOs would sign brief emails with a simple yet genuine: "Thank you Kim". Another, onc…https://t.co/QW5hAJptDd

The habit of appreciation is satisfying and deeply rewarding. One of my CEOs would sign brief emails with a simple yet genuine: "Thank you Kim". Another once left a: "Thank you for everything you do" note on a post-it (believe it or not, I still have it s…https://t.co/ok7HS2DlnC

Over-worked, under-ressourced, and pressured to drive and push our teams forward regardless of people being burnt out, hurting, and feeling treated unfairly, this not only perpetuates feelings of injustice and resentment, it can le…https://t.co/4H0oUCtoWO https://t.co/HUTPqc1gpj

Early on in its inception, People Compass defined its three guiding principles as: #Transcendence, #Resonance, and #Intentionality. 

These core values live and breathe within all our strategic leadership sessions, our executive enablement connects, our r…https://t.co/Cu7LkYloyD

Executive managers asks: What do you do, want to do, and need to do? 
Intentional strategic leaders adds: How do you feel, want to feel, and need to feel?

It is not ok to suspend a founder, cut access to their email, and threaten staff if they enter in any contract with them without conducting an external, fair, and impartial investigation.

Leaders are fatigued and exhausted and many of our champions and team members are too. The cumulative effects and weight of the ever-expanding global pandemic, the undeniable realities of our harrowing colonial history, the systemic and pervasive impacts…https://t.co/yIxwoJO0Fa

Are your playing it safe, or do you face your fears? 
When was the last time you took a risk? How did you feel in that moment? 

Stepping into the unfamiliar and feeling uneasy, uncomfortable, queasy, that is what being alive is all about. That is what st…https://t.co/mnlpkfcvpJ
