UnSelfie:
Tonight, in my small little village, Michele Borba spoke to a crowd of parents in our school auditorium. The crowd was larger than expected, and we all had high expectations, but I admit her message was more powerful than we expected. Michele Borba shared both the WHY and the HOW, and she did it in a way where we all wanted to go home and build this into us and our family… Continue reading UnSelfie:

Gut Instinct
Research continues to turn up remarkable links between the microbiome and the brain. Scientists are finding evidence that microbiome may play a role not just in Alzheimer’s disease, but Parkinson’s disease, depression, schizophrenia, autism and other conditions. I am interested in this area of research for two reasons… Continue reading Gut Instinct
Home Depot
The book, The Founders Mentality by Chris Zook and James Allen, talks in chapter two about three predictable crisis of growth. A key one that affected Home Depot, and I believe affects many large organizations, is Stall-Out: The Crisis of Low or Slowing Growth. Home Depot, or more specifically the previous CEO Frank Blake, is featured in the book for how he tapped into the power of the founder’s mentality to launch a series of initiatives that focused on renewing bonds with front-line employees and the customer. I would like to share some insights I gleaned from this book and other sources, and share how we can leverage this learning and wisdom to help our organizations grow and prosper.

Uniquely Better
The book, The Founders Mentality by Chris Zook and James Allen, talks about the owner’s mindsight. I love this idea of thinking like you were the owner. In that spirit, if I owned the Kohler Co., I would want every one of my leaders to listen to this podcast and to push us to create a culture that is positioned to recognize ‘uniquely better’ and embrace it rather than resist it. Continue reading Uniquely Better
Check Engine
Many of us treat our spouses like our automobiles. We wait until the red light on the dashboard lights up before we pay attention to the slowly building problems. Some of us, like me, ignore the light until serious work is needed to repair the issues. Preventative maintenance can help avoid emergencies in our marriage, and with our car, but many of us simply don’t think about it. Continue reading Check Engine
