The great pandemic career recalibration moment has arrived. NPR is talking about it, the NYT Is as well. I haven’t yet checked Fox News and, well, you can do your own search on that one :-). People are leaving jobs in droves right now. Clients who were once fearful about leaving are leaving with ease. […]

Isn’t it delightful? Spring is here and since I’m all masked up, this is my first year of enjoyment without allergies. Oh blessed, blessed side effects of these awkward masks! I hope you’re enjoying the weather and the change. It’s been a minute (I had to finish that book), but I’m back and bouncier than

Here’s a cup of cerebral wassail: The world is getting significantly better, and I’ve got the data to prove it. These two books have shifted my

I’ve never been more grateful. For health, for masks, for coming change. I believe we’re on the downhill side of the pandemic, and that we’ll have a vaccine, a more functional leader in the United States, and more attention to schools and children’s educational needs in 2021.  2020 was a year of pain, misalignment, disagreement,
