🔥 @MiddlesexMagic HGAL defeats Jersey Shore Preds 62-51 behind a 17-point performance from #12 Connor Larnard.

Connor came up huge in the win, making plays in big spots and bringing energy all game long.

Xaverian High soph. G Connor Larnard (Scituate) talks about his 15-point night in a 55-51 win over BC High. Larnard has 5 brothers who attended BC High, including track/XC stars Chris and Shamus, who were nat’l champs in the 4xmile relay in 2024. @sports_ledger @Xaverian_Hawks

Is it time to retire the #leaders vs. #managers debate? Tony Gambill thinks so— and I couldn't agree more.

Why are we so quick to label leaders as "good" and managers as "bad" when both roles bring their own value to the table? @Forbes https://t.co/7pjgQ2J2gJ

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

"Just as great athletes seek out great coaches, the best people want to work for leaders who coach them to reach their full potential..."

Couldn't agree more with this perspective from @HarvardBiz. Have you adopted a #coaching mindset in your leadership? https://t.co/j83GmrNPRI

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

A #GrowthMindset means you don't look for pitfalls, you look for opportunities. A nice reminder to see the best and potential in others.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Looking for the good in others doesn’t make you naive. It means you’re not cynical.

Recognizing people’s strengths doesn’t deny their flaws. It reveals their potential to overcome their flaws.

Those who refuse to see the good in others fail to bring out the best in others.

What's next for #EnterpriseTechnology? While it might not be a surprise, it looks like #AI and #ML are here to stay. @BuiltIn shares how the tech is becoming more innovative, while also more affordable. https://t.co/TTHLO9XsIj

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

Want to prepare your #leadership to weather uncertainty? Admit that you don't have all the answers. Great advice here from Bill Adams of @LeadershipCir for @Forbes. Vulnerability and transparency are a must. https://t.co/JZcRde73TP

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

If you notice your team seeming less engaged, take a step back and see how you can better support them rather than simply placing blame on a "lack of motivation" or drive.

As a #leader, the solution starts with you ⬇️

[Kate Roeske-Zummer @KateRZummer]

Productivity is about people. Enough with efficiency, there is nothing more to squeeze out of folks, and the data proves it.

You and your team contribute to the workplace culture. If things are not quite right, you are part of the solution.

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

@AdamMGrant When we have the headspace to fully build on our own ideas, we often come up with better solutions. Then when we came come together we can "dump the clay on the table" and mold together! Thanks for sharing, Adam!

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

@AmyCEdmondson Such an important conversation as we discuss empathetic leadership and being vulnerable leaders. Empathy for those you're leading is the anchoring tenet ... it's about the teammate, not the leader. Sometimes that gets turned around a bit.

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

@mwbuckingham Agreed, Marcus! Many times frustration and anger come from simple miscommunications. Being clear and direct with your language is so important to leading high performing teams.

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

@tomspalding Great points, Tom. Sometimes discomfort brings you to your brightest ideas!

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

What makes successful #DigitalTransformation?

According to @4enterprisers, it starts with "a team-centered approach," where leaders seek and value perspectives to create a culture of willingness to try new processes. https://t.co/VIk7xRLpuC

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

It's true— many times, progress is more important than perfection.

So how can we keep ourselves from falling into this trap? @HarvardBiz recommends "designing the right goals and recognizing failure as part of the process." #leadership https://t.co/1sZRHy0A3i

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

"How you enable your team to own their own work today is a strong indicator if you are leading or managing."

Great thoughts here from @FastCompany on #leadership. Are you ready to put trust in your team and enable them to lead themselves? https://t.co/KZduM8JGdW

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

@KateRZummer 100%! When your teams feel supported, they're more willing to go the extra mile. Thanks for sharing, Kate.

[Eric Larnard @elarnard]

@thesamparr That's why utilizing your "productive" moments is so important. I can't list the amount of time I've probably wasted working on a project when I wasn't in the right headspace. Thanks, Sam.
