“Where Does Confidence Come From?” (July 9, 2024).
“Confidence is a gift that breathes life into dreams, rendering the tallest mountains conquerable and the greatest challenges surmountable.”

Corey Tatel and Ben Wigert, Gallup:
“42% of Employee Turnover Is Preventable but Often Ignored:

“Managers play a pivotal role in re-engaging employees and preventing turnover. Ongoing, meaningful conversations about issues most influencing people’s job satisfaction, performance, and future with the organization are essential to developing and retaining top talent.”

Kelly Goldsmith and Marshall Goldsmith:
“Marshall Goldsmith: Before Speaking, Ask ‘Is It Worth It?‘”

Julie Winkle Giulioni:
“Symbolic Leadership: What Do You Stand For … or Where Do You Sit?” (7-11-24).
“Displaying leadership rather than gimmickry demands a look deep within. What do I stand for? What are my values? How can I bring life to what matters most?”
