Each week, I collect the resources related to leadership, personal growth, and professional development I shared on social media the prior week, with the accompanying quotations.
……..
Gary Burnison, CEO of Korn Ferry:
“The Trust in All of Us” (12-8-24).
“Others will know they can trust our words by observing our consistent actions. Moreover, when people work for a trustworthy leader, they are more likely to be motivated and inspired, show persistence when work is challenging, and learn from failures instead of being fearful of making mistakes.”
……..
Ben Wigert and Corey Tatel, Gallup:
“The Great Detachment: Why Employees Feel Stuck” (12-3-24).
“The good news is that by addressing two declining elements of engagement — clear expectations and mission or purpose — leaders can turn these risks into game-changing strengths.”
……..
Ken Blanchard:
“December Is for Reflecting and Dreaming” (12-11-24).
“What do you want to be true next year that is not true today? Now is the time to dream! Dreams help you connect to your inner self and give you a sense of purpose.”
……..
Ted Kitterman, Great Place to Work:
“Having a Seat at the Table Changes Everything at Best Workplaces for Parents” (12-3-24).
“One of the key differences between the Best Workplaces for Parents and a typical workplace is how much control parents feel they have over their experience. In practice, that often comes down to their experience with their direct manager.”

Travis Bradberry:
“10 Ways To Spot A Truly Exceptional Employee” (8-16-24).
“[E]xceptional employees don’t walk past problems. ‘Oh, it’s been that way forever,’ simply isn’t in their vocabulary. They see problems as issues to be fixed immediately; it’s that simple.”
