A change of pace

I have been blogging on a weekly basis for 16 months now, and my metrics tell me that not all of my newsletter readers have seen my blogs. So starting with this issue, I will be posting my monthly comment as my latest blog entry. This month's is titled Extro-intro-ambi, and deals with the three types of "-verts." I hope you find these posts useful, thought-provoking, or entertaining.  And if you have any questions for me to address in upcoming posts, just send an e-mail!

Other "news" includes notices of upcoming workshops, which you can find here.

Tips you can use!

Break in your leadership shoes
You may be saving your "powerful' new shoes for a special presentation or high-stakes meeting, but wear them around the house to break them in a bit. Because it's hard to be a leader when your feet are killing you.

Breathe deeply every day
Aside from myriad health benefits of deep breathing, your body needs to get used to what "filling up the tank" feels like. If you practice daily, you'll be ready to call up a deep breath instantly when you need it.

Use the computer's tricks
As you format your notes, you can try various colors for fonts, differentiate with spacing, even insert wingdings or other symbols to help you. They're your private roadmap, so annotate away.
