July 26, 2021
 
We ask groups of leaders, “Do you think your manager is co-responsible for how you show up or for how successful you are in your role? Does your performance depend on what he or she does?” They quickly and assertively answer, “Of course.” Then we ask, “So, then, ...

July 12, 2021
 
What makes a good coach? Is it a certificate? Is it multiple years in practice? Is it a particular school?
