January 2023
/in Employee Development /by GYF DeveloperI hope 2023 is off to a great start for everyone. I had a great 2-day retreat with my EOS Advisory Board clients last week, and every company that participates had their best year ever in 2022! I’m really proud of that group and how they hold each other accountable.
As we discussed their strategic plans for 2023, we talked a lot about how to engage and appreciate employees and how important that is to the sustainability of all small businesses. So, I thought it appropriate to include a couple of articles in this month’s newsletter on the topic. I hope you find some useful information in both articles.

/in Business Management, Core Values /by GYF DeveloperAs the year is coming to a close, this is a great time for reflection…both personally and professionally. Often times, these two worlds intersect. As a leader, do you know what challenges your team is dealing with at home that might be impacting them at work? One of this month’s articles focuses on how being a care giver impacts so many, whether it be for children, parents or anywhere in between. I hope you find the article thought provoking. The other article discusses the importance of doing a SWOT analysis. I find doing this near the end of the year to be quite beneficial. Assess how your year was, learn from it and apply that to your 2023 plan.

/in Leadership /by GYF DeveloperAre you a good communicator? The truth is that many of us are not. Are you a good listener? Even fewer of us have mastered this skill! As a leader, both are essential tools.
Are you doing regular “check-ins” with your team? Are you leading them through the challenges of the current environment or just going through the motions? I am hopeful that the following articles will be helpful on both fronts.

/in Delegation, Employee Development /by GYF DeveloperAs the year is winding down, I think it is an important time to reflect on what has transpired and to project what changes should be considered moving forward. In thinking about employee engagement, two things come to mind: delegation and regular check-ins. Are you utilizing these tools? Some leaders struggle with delegation as they think their team is already busy and they don’t want to impose. However, great employees will rise to the occasion and absorb the work like champions.

/in Hybrid workforce, Leadership /by GYF DeveloperAs many of you know, I am passionate about how leaders interact with their teams. It’s often the root of most issues that arise within an organization. This month, I’ve included 2 articles that address this important topic. One focuses on the pressures of seeking perfection in all that we do.
August 2022
/in Hybrid workforce, Leadership /by GYF DeveloperAs a leader, do you embrace vulnerability? Do you think of vulnerability as a strength? I do! I’ve included an article in this issue that elaborates on how to leverage being vulnerable.
I know it’s hard to believe that summer is coming to an end, but sadly, it is. I hope you’ve taken the time to spend with your loved ones. As always, if I can answer any questions or be of any assistance, please reach out.
