I write Insights and Trigger Questions to boost your career while dealing with the nonsense of pleasing a boss, playing nice with colleagues, making subordinates productive, & living a life. I was born in the middle of South African wine country, earned three degrees drinking red wine, was chased by a lioness, had to run from elephants, got bored, and moved to the USA seeking adventure.
On the same day as my encounter with that lioness and those elephants, I saw a lot of dung baking in the sun. And many dung beetles. That's when I realized that what I see as nonsense might be sense to someone else.
As an executive leadership coach since 1990 (and as an ex-CEO and management consultant), I have seen a lot of nonsense at work.
Which is why I write about the nonsense at work, in the hope that I can help you make the nonsense at work work for you.
