The quality of our relationships at work is more important than quantity. Choose your associations wisely; they can improve or hurt you.

It's never too late to change your career.
If there is something you are passionate about, you owe it to yourself to at least investigate it, no matter the stage of your current #career.

If you look to the future and can't imagine staying in your job until you retire, it's time to think about a career change.
Today is a good day to start your journey. Commit to doing one thing that brings you a step closer to a new path.

Toxic corporate culture is ten times more powerful than compensation in predicting attrition.
As we face one of the tightest labor markets in 50 years, companies with poor cultures will have talent heading for the doors.

Treat others like you would like to be treated? No.
Because that assumes they like to be treated like you.
Treat others like THEY would like to be treated.

I know leaders who believe we have to choose between being kind or effective.
This is a false permissive. Leadership is not binary. One can be kind and effective simultaneously. And over time, kindness will lead to better business results than toughness.

It's a mistake to think of success in our careers as climbing the "career ladder." Careers rarely move in a straight upward line.
A successful career fulfills us and contributes to society. And for most of us, it will look more like a zig-zag than a ladder.

Current performance of the management profession is not at its best. Only 1 in 5 in management positions demonstrate the right skills required to manage others. Not exactly a ringing endorsement of leadership. How can we make it better in 2022?

Empathy is the ability to understand the needs of others. For remote leaders, being able to relate to your team's challenges has never been more critical - It improves your leadership effectiveness and increases your team’s chances of success. #workingremote#empathy
Our days as leaders are filled with a variety of crises: a deadline, an escalation, an offline system or some fire that needs attention.
Taking time to be present when you meet with your teams and focusing on doing just that is a big act of leadership. #BePresent#leadership
Managers, encourage your teams to take time off.
Then lead by example, and take time off yourself.
80% of managers have canceled vacations due to work. And when we take them, over 40% check into work anyways.
And then we wonder why we are burnt out.

The #holidays are a season of giving. But what if we shifted from gifting things to gifting experiences? From expensive items to simple offerings?
I think there would be less stress, less anxiety, more joy, more financial freedom, and a positive impact on the planet.
If you are managing a remote team, please do not micromanage. Micromanagement erodes trust and creates unnecessary stress. Establish clear goals and focus on the results. If a report is due on Thursday, don’t ask about it Monday through Wednesday. #remote#leadership
Excited to see the momentum of business messaging picking up even more speed in 2022 as more business will shift from phone and emails to messaging. #business#whatsappbusiness#whatsapp#2022predictions https://t.co/FSxWy8oV7B

Remote work is not just a consequence of Covid-19. In 2020 (before the arrival of COVID-19) there were already 7 million people working remotely in the U.S., or 3.4% of the population. Covid accelerated it, but remote work is here to stay regardless of the pandemics. #remotework
Most meetings could have been an email or other form of asynchronous communication. But how do you decide? Don't meet to define questions, meet to discuss conclusions.
