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:
“When Our Give Meets Our Get” (May 5, 2024).
“Leadership is not a role, it’s a calling. It’s the gift of lifting others up. After all, when they see just how far they’ve come, they appreciate how capable they can become.”
……..
Ben Wigert and Heather Barrett, Gallup:
“2% of CHROs Think Their Performance Management System Works” (5-7-24).
“Managers too often deprioritize development goals at the expense of performance goals. If you expect your team to continually improve and grow, consider making critical development goals as important as their performance goals.”
……..
Charles Handy, in an edited excerpt from his book 21 Letters on Life and Its Challenges (2019):
“The wisdom of Charles Handy” (7-16-19).
“I now believe that work needs to be organized, that things should be managed, but that people can only be encouraged, inspired, and led.”

Jeff Wetzler, author of Ask: Tap Into the Hidden Wisdom of People Around You for Unexpected Breakthroughs in Leadership and Life (2024):
“The Art of Asking:
Five steps for unlocking learning and connection.” (4-25-24).
“Decades of research by Harvard Business School professor Amy Edmondson and others has demonstrated that in order for people to speak up, they need to feel psychologically safe doing so. In other words, they need to really believe that you will not judge, shame, or punish them for sharing openly with you.”

Travis Bradberry:
“7 Things Deeply Intuitive People Do Differently” (5-10-24).
“One of the primary reasons that some people are more intuitive than others is that they actually listen to their gut feeling instead of dismissing or doubting it.”
