One of the biggest keys to success at anything hard is believing that you can figure it out as you go along. Because most hard things can't be figured out in advance they never start. As Picasso observed, "To know what you are going to draw, you have to begin drawing."

Hard truth.

🤘🏻rocking meetings

Hey you... you got this 💪

“Don’t mistake silence for disengagement”. As a leader in a room you have to be able to sit in the awkward moments of silence and engage people who are the deep thinkers. To do that start before you enter the room, it is easier to speak up when prepared.

This.

An inspiring image to have in ones’ head.

Next step courage ... You don’t need enough courage for the entire journey. You only need courage for a few seconds to overcome self-doubt before you take the next step.

Yes to this 🙌🏼. And it is challenging and needs change management for the teams to come to terms with it.

Questioning your abilities doesn’t mean you have impostor syndrome. It’s a normal response to a new challenge or a difficult task. The absence of doubt breeds arrogance. Feeling unsure maintains humility. A lack of confidence is a reminder that you have something to learn.

What an aha to read and remind oneself when communicating results to teams we work with.

So true. I am so good at passing this advice on and so bad at implementing it myself 🙈.

Time in meetings has more than tripled since Feb 2020. Nearly a third of meetings are unnecessary—wasting $25M a year for every 1k people. There are 4 reasons to meet: to decide, learn, bond, and do. If it doesn't serve one of those purposes, cancel it. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Generosity, curiosity and integrity.

It's not ambition that holds women back. They're punished for violating gender stereotypes as warm & submissive. Data: ambitious men and women get promoted. Aggressive women are penalized more than men. End the double standard: if you accept it in men, don't reject it in women.
