Bonding Together as a Team – The Benefits of Having Team Building

I’ve led hundreds of workplace trainings and team-building days, and here’s the headline from the front line: bonding together as a team is the big benefit. When people learn, practise and reflect together, something changes. The energy shifts. The language shifts. Decisions get cleaner. And momentum builds because everyone was part of the same [...]

One Hour a Day: What Leaders Can Learn from a Young Artist’s Discipline

When our son Malachi asked Nicole how he could get better at art, her advice was simple: devote one focused hour a day to drawing and creating. Since then, our living room has looked a little like a studio—art supplies at the ready—and we’ve watched him grow through steady, intentional practice. Recently, we visited [...]

Celebrating 10,000 Connections: Why This Milestone Matters

This week, I reached a milestone I’m both humbled by and grateful for: 10,000 followers on LinkedIn. For me, this number isn’t just about reach. It’s about the people—leaders, managers, and professionals—who’ve connected with my work, engaged with my posts, and been part of conversations about leadership, resilience, communication, and culture. Every comment, like, [...]

Trust, Tension, and Transformation: What Leaders Need to Know About Communication

Every leader knows communication is important, but few stop to consider the full impact it has on a team’s culture, cohesion, and performance. Communication is more than words exchanged—it’s the bridge between trust, the reality of tension, and the possibility of transformation. Trust is the starting point. Without it, people hesitate to share ideas, [...]

The Pruning Principle: Fewer Projects, Better Results

I grew up in Laird, Saskatchewan, where my parents had rows and rows of raspberry canes. Every year, Mum handed us the secateurs and told us to prune hard. I remember one day I’d worked through what felt like a mile of raspberry canes and proudly told Mum I’d finished. She walked the row, [...]

Just Go: Lessons from a Poetry Slam

This year, I set myself one simple but challenging commitment: “Just Go.” So when I heard about the Australian Poetry Slam last week, I didn’t overthink it. I signed up. I’ve always loved writing poetry and declarations, and with a few pieces already written, it felt like the right time to give it a [...]

Delegating Ownership: A Smarter Way to Lead

We just wrapped up a leadership training in Sydney with a fantastic tech team, and one of the most thought-provoking discussions was around Delegating Ownership—a concept grounded in the Situational Leadership® model. It’s a reminder that leadership isn’t just about handing out tasks—it’s about knowing when and how to pass the baton so your [...]
