Everyone gets stressed. In fact, a recent survey by Statistic Brain concluded that over 70% of Americans experience both physical AND psychological symptoms caused by stress. The top stress causing category is job pressure. Running behind job pressure (in order) are money, health, relationships, poor nutrition, media overload, and sleep deprivation. An interesting list for sure, but it seems that the engine pulling the causal stress train is the stress from job pressure. For leaders, the job pressure becomes greater as their responsibilities increase. As Shakespeare so aptly penned, “Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.”
Faith, Leadership
Facing business struggles, setbacks, conflicts, and hard financial times is something that business leaders and CEOs expect to experience.
Time Management, Transformation
I enjoy unhurried conversations where joys, hopes, dreams, and fears bubble to the surface of our often too-busy lives. As a pastor and frequent speaker on faith, work, and economics, I not only really like a bold cup of coffee but enjoy catching up with congregational members at a favorite coffee shop.
Human Resources
Creating a talent advantage defines much of the human capability (talent + leadership + organization + HR) agenda. HR professionals often gain credibility and have an impact when they help create a talent advantage by answering such questions as why talent matters, how to improve talent, and how to prioritize talent.
