Recently while inside a client's office, as we walked to get coffee, one of their direct reports passing in the hallway said, "I spoke with Jane up in Finance and she said they won't agree to change the pricing for us. What should we do? The leader I was walking with responded, "Let me think about it and I'll drop by your office later today." "Perfect." the subordinate said. Sound familiar? This took me back to my graduate school days while studying psychology. Surely a different lesson than I was

Remember the scene from The Blind Side where Mrs. Tuohy teaches Coach Bert how to lead? Coach Bert, barking out orders, and quite clear about his fleeting contempt for young Michael Oher screams onto the field from his perch, “Oher! You got a hundred pounds on Collins and you can’t keep him out of our backfield?” After a few “coaching” words with Michael up close, he heads back to the sideline. Leaning over to commiserate with his Assistant Coach, “Well at least we’ll look good coming off the bus

There are real paradoxes afoot; real challenges. And at least 175 company CEOs and executives recognize it. The CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion is a wonderful campaign and we all have very high expectations. Our only hope? It's not just another great campaign. While running the risk of sounding a little negative, unless companies truly address the issues head-on, this is precisely what it will be. I long to see a new landscape. I'm rooting for its success! Historically, we've wanted to fix

While sitting on a coffee shop patio, sipping my latte, I spot a young couple walking up the sidewalk toward me. They are smiling and chatting as if the world around them is standing still and only the two of them exist. As they get closer, I see their big smiles. I also see their shirts. Now I'm smiling. Their shirts are beautiful in their simplicity. His says, "She rocks! I'm with her." Complete with the pointing finger. Her shirt says, "He's the bomb! I'm with him." Requisite pointing

It’s the holiday season, and again my wife has waited until the end of the year to attempt to use the bulk of her vacation days that she’s not taken throughout the year. While I sat at my desk pecking away at the keyboard I noticed she was on her work laptop. “Aren’t you on vacation today?” I asked. “Yes.” She replied. “I’m just getting this one thing done. Then I’ll log off.” She chirped. I continued to work for quite some time before looking up again; as did she. Employee engagement is a

(Published in The Arkansas Banker) Imagine having more DDA, Mortgage and Trust customers than you can handle, triple digit revenue increases year after year and Twitter, Facebook and Periscope ablaze from customers singing your praises. The best companies are the result of their people. No two alike; each bringing a dynamic difference to the workplace. Does your environment allow your people to bring their full selves, making the unassailable difference for your organization? Or do you force them

What a day! Watching the news in agony over yet another senseless shooting, I pray none of you were impacted. I am not so naïve. I recognize that's unlikely. Unfortunately, we are all impacted; some more than others. There is a massive amount of discourse and ugliness occurring in our country and across the world causing division. Some in fact by design. Honestly, I wish it escaped me. It doesn't. Frankly, I don't think it escapes any of us. In every conversation, let's try to approach them

What does the election outcome have to do with your organization and the work that needs to get done? A lot! With the backdrop of an already disengaged workforce, many chose to further disengage immediately following the election. This impacts an organization’s productivity. Whether the people of your organization's guy won or woman lost, they are processing what this means. Leader, have you engaged, or is your head buried? People are not machines and don’t check their thoughts and feelings

There is really nothing good on television now! Well. Depending on how you view it. Actually lessons in leadership, relationship and respect are abundant if viewed from the right context. Like you, I am also tired of the lack of leadership and bs that has been clouding our airwaves. But truth be told, there are some salient lessons that can be gained from television of the day. I’ll highlight a few starting with listening. Listening skills are an important part of effective communication. To
