When leaders recognize that they don’t have to be the smartest person in the room, these are the companies that consistently pull off innovative or heroic feats in business because so many of the people who work there are given the freedom to make it happen.

Fantastic panel yesterday at Corporate Directors Forum on Redefining Modern Boards through Diversity and Skills with Jessica N. Grounds, Dennis Arriola, John Driver, NACD.DC, Becky Petitt and Beth Sasfai. Key takeaways: 1. It’s not a pipeline problem, it’s a network problem. 2. Always approach a board seat opportunity with how can you make the board better and what value you can bring not how qualified you are. 3. As a Director, “ask, don’t task” when talking to the CEO/management team. Also “nose in (fiduciary responsibilities), fingers out” (don’t micromanage).

As we wrapped up an incredibly busy and eventful Q1, I've taken a moment to reflect on the journey our company, my team, and our operations have embarked upon. It's been a period marked by significant challenges, immense projects, and, yes, exciting developments. However, it's important to acknowledge that 'exciting' doesn't always mean positive. It's a testament to the unpredictable and often demanding nature of our work. The projects in front of us are monumental, not just in their scope but in their potential to shape our future. This reality brings to the forefront the critical role of leadership in maintaining our team's focus on the bigger picture. It's a delicate balance—steering our collective efforts towards the greater good of the company, even when it may not align perfectly with the immediate interests of my operation or myself. This is the essence of teamwork and sacrifice for a larger vision. In these times, the importance of planning and objectivity cannot be overstated. It's about making informed decisions that serve the long-term objectives of our organization, ensuring that we're not just reactive but proactive in our strategies. I share this reflection not just as a personal account but as a reminder of the common challenges we all face in our professional journeys. Whether it's navigating through complex projects, aligning individual goals with those of the company, or making tough decisions for the collective benefit, these experiences bind us. They remind us of the resilience, dedication, and vision required to not just survive but thrive in today's dynamic business environment. To my team, our company, and everyone pushing through their own set of challenges—let's continue to support each other, stay focused on our goals, and remain committed to the greater good. The road ahead is both challenging and promising, and it's the journey we take together that makes all the difference.

“By recording your dreams and goals on paper, you set in motion the process of becoming the person you most want to be. Put your future in good hands — your own.” — Mark Victor Hansen Can you believe we're nearing the end of Q1 already? Time has flown by! Today, I'm thrilled to share that my team is on track to hit our overall quarterly goal. Last year was all about laying down systems, but this year, it's all about execution. We've implemented the second step of our GSDS system - teamwork. This allows us to review our KPIs weekly, ensuring we stay on track and make necessary adjustments. We all buy in and understand our roles on the team, working together like a well-oiled machine. With everyone fully committed, our results speak volumes. I couldn't ask for a better team! Ready to crush Q2 with even more execution and raise the bar even higher! How do you track and create your goals? #MadeinAmerica #Staffing #staffingsolutions #AmericanMade

Is your team equipped with the persistence needed to transform challenges into opportunities? Teams who are persistent don't let setbacks stop them; rather, they see them as valuable learning opportunities that build their determination and expand their potential. However, fostering this kind of persistent mindset within a team requires more than just encouragement; it demands a structured approach to developing resilience and adaptability. Leaders play a key role in this by setting examples through their own actions and by establishing a supportive culture that values perseverance. Regular training and development programs can also equip team members with the tools they need to effectively manage stress, solve problems creatively, and adapt to changing circumstances without losing sight of their objectives. This recognition helps to build a supportive atmosphere where team members are encouraged to remain dedicated despite the difficulties they face. This strategic focus on persistence ultimately leads to greater innovation, stronger team cohesion, and sustained performance in achieving the organization goals.
