#SuperHerosWearScrubs

#SuperHerosWearScrubs Last month my client work made me a better person. After spending two days face-to-face (or mask-to-mask) with 60 heroic nurse managers at NCH Healthcare System I was humbled. I witnessed first-hand what an unwavering commitment to the values of strength, caring and courage look like in the toughest of times. We trust that our work together gave them new tools and skills to make their jobs of bravely leading during this unprecedented time easier. Please take the time to appreciate a healthcare worker today for making a positive impact on our nation & world in this time of crisis—and beyond

Thank you Michelle Atkinson Jonathan Kling for making this happen.

Worked with this brilliant group from Eglin Air Force Munitions Lab last week. It was a privilege to share the research-based leadership program Dare to Lead with them. Their commitment to bravery is surpassed only by their commitment to their mission. Special thanks to @Lori Auten for her facilitation support. Air Force Research Laboratory

You may not feel knowledgeable enough and you may worry you will say the wrong thing. You don't want people to misinterpret what you say or do as sexist, racist, homophobic or some other kind of hater that you believe you’re not - so you do nothing. I get it. That seems the safest route. 

But opting out of these conversations because you feel uncomfortable, is the definition of privilege. Read more…
