How Is the Under Ground Harming Your Business?
My associate, Marc Porter Ph.D, researches content shows that every organization has three distinct areas. Common Ground–people are engaged, feel safe, trust each other, and the process Under Ground–people are not engaged, think "why bother," sit on the sidelines Battle Ground–people have checked out, sabotage, passive resistance, legal action, etc.

Growing the Common Ground in the Workplace
What happened to civility? When did we lose it? Did we ever have it? How can we find it and successfully implement civility for the common good? There is no denying we live in a divided country. Strong opinions, harsh words, misrepresentation of facts, and outright lies have become commonplace. Civil discourse, discussion and debate has been replaced with name calling, hostile rhetoric and at times acts of violence.

You Cheated Death—Now What?
Since the release of my book “Five Years to Live,” I have met with dozens of families who have received and had to deal with the phone call every dreads; “There has been an accident and your son/daughter is paralyzed.” Now what? What does the family do? Who do they contact? When will they know something? How badly is he/she hurt? How do they get to the hospital? Who can take them to the airport? Where do they stay? How do they cope with the shock, grief, and the major overhaul of their life?

What Is This Toxic Masculinity? Why Should You Care?
Toxic masculinity! If you haven’t heard this term, you will. It has become a trendy topic on social media, blogs, and talk shows. The first time I heard it, I thought it was a new disease that had been discovered. I am an average American male. I am not a celebrity, a PhD holder, a famous athlete or a billionaire businessman. I had to find out if this toxic masculinity affected the average guy. I did my own research. This is what I found:

Can You Pick up the Pieces?
The story is too familiar. You are involved in a long term relationship or marriage. It usually starts out wonderful, full of joy and excitement as you pursue your hopes and dreams. You are ready to take on the world together. Then life happens. Stress at work; money issues; children’s needs; losing a job; issues with in-laws; health concerns. The list goes on and on. The feelings of joy starts to fade. You didn’t sign up for this! You stop communicating with each other, I mean really communicating and connecting, not just talking at each other. The relationship and your life become a grind. You start going through the motions.

The Many Forms of Unconditional Love
What is unconditional love? Webster’s New World Dictionary defines unconditional as without conditions or reservations; absolute. Most of us will admit we hope to find someone to love and who will love us back without conditions or reservations for the rest of our life. Usually, we are referring to a spouse or a significant life partner. We want the “happily ever after story.” As much as we hope and look for unconditional love, it is very hard to find. Yet the difficulty does not deter us from the quest. The search for unconditional love is so powerful that Valentine’s Day, has become one of the priciest holidays in the US. Those in love or seeking love are set to spend $20.7 billion this year for Valentine’s Day, says the National Retail Federation, beating the 2016 record of $19.7 billion.

Do You Know What You Don't Know?
Are you honest enough to admit to yourself that you don't know what you don't know? Be honest. I work with a number of investors and the statement I hear most often is; far too many aspiring entrepreneurs fail to get their business off the ground because they are not adequately prepared to secure funding.

What If?
I meet with so many people who lament, “I am following the best practices for my industry, but my business is floundering.” Really? Best practice is a term that drives me crazy. Best practices are a point in time. They are not the Gospel. They are not written in stone. They aren’t a forever thing. If it doesn’t work for you then it isn’t a best practice, is it?

Are You Willing to Change to Build a High Performing Culture?
Congratulations! You are having success. Things are starting to look positive. It is time to celebrate right? WRONG! If you have figured out some steps to success so has your competition. In many cases they have been monitoring you. Watching you do the heavy lifting so they can use your model. What are you going to do to keep your advantage?

What Picture Is Your Vision Painting?
Does your vision paint a picture that people can see and follow? Does your vision lead to action? How do you know? Do you know why your employees work for you or your customers do business with you? Most people will tell me it’s because of what they do and how they do it. Rarely do they tell me why? What you do and how you do it are not as important as why. Your why is your vision. Your way paints a picture and leads employees and customers to want to do business with you.
