The Monthly Waddle
a monthly newsletter to keep you up-to-date and share tips and tricks to help in your personal and professional development

August 1, 2023 – 31st Newsletter
Last month’s theme was all about not overcomplicating things! So often we find ourselves stuck in what we think is impossible to navigate out of, but many times we are making it more difficult than it needs to be. I encourage you to take that first baby step, or the next step, or make the best decision with the information you have right now. Don’t get stuck, and don’t overcomplicate it. Hope you found something that resonated with you through the Quotes, Think about it Thursdays, and Pulse Point I published around this topic. Please let me know what your takeaway has been.
Hope you are taking advantage of some time off during the summer! I recently came back from a fantastic beach vacation where the sun was shining, the ocean waves were calming, and the laughs were abundant; my “happy place”! Would love to hear from you – what’s your “happy place”?

I hope you enjoyed my thoughts around Melissa Daimler’s book, “Reculturing” through my June Quotes, Think about it Thursdays, and Pulse Point. Running a successful business and team truly takes constant reflection and effort. This book is a must read for any organization who wants to continuously evolve by having their strategy, purpose, and workplace culture in alignment. She defines ReCulturing as “the continuous act of redesigning and reconnecting behaviors, processes, and practices to each other and to the organizational system.” (Daimler, 2022, p.11) Some of you may have also picked up the book… Would love to hear your thoughts!!!
On another note, I hope you are having a wonderful summer so far! I recently came back from a vacation, and it reminds me that everyone needs a break from work to unplug, rest, relax, have fun, and come back clearer and more creative. Would love to hear what you are doing in the summer!!!

June 1, 2023 – 29th Newsletter
Lifelong learning is another core value of mine and was the theme for May – check out thoughts around Learning Journeys through my Quotes, Think about it Thursdays, and Pulse Point. It’s fascinating thinking about all the ways you can learn – there isn’t one way to learn nor is there a one-size-fits-all approach. You can choose what approach interests you the most, you can learn something in less than 5 minutes, you can try to do things, fail, and try again, and yes, that’s learning! Learning helps us develop a growth mindset that’s critical to going through life’s journey and building those much-needed resiliency skills. I would love to hear from you about the last thing you learned and how! Please send me a note!
For June, I will focus on the concept of “Reculturing” based on Melissa Daimler’s book. I hope you find a few aha moments about this concept like I did. I look forward to hearing how you and your organization think about the continuous evolution of culture!
Hope you have a fantastic June!

May 1, 2023 – 28th Newsletter
Human leadership is more critical than ever. What do I mean by “human leadership”? Many thoughts and phrases come to my mind including but not limited to: “we are all human”, “authenticity is key”, “no one is perfect”, “what motivates you / what are your values”, “humans are meant to evolve, change, and grow”, “we are not robots, we are human”, “connect with others as a fellow human being”, “lets appreciate each other as a person”, and “wouldn’t it be nice if we just talked with others and really listened to them?” My core values include being authentic and myself and humanizing leadership. Throughout April, I included thoughts around this area through my Quotes, Think about it Thursdays, and Pulse Point – check them out.
Remember no one is perfect; we are all human! Get grounded in your core values and then reflect, learn, and take action to bring a more human side to leadership.
Wishing you a fantastic May!

Meeting employee needs to increase employee engagement was the focus for all my March publications. Wouldn’t it be great if every single employee felt heard, understood, connected, appreciated, and fulfilled? It’s possible! We often overcomplicate things. Check out my Quotes, Think about it Thursdays, and Pulse Point for tips and inspiration. Remember no one is perfect! Try something, start small, and genuinely care and you’ll see progress!
Please send me your thoughts about employee engagement – I’d love to hear from you!

Empathy was the theme for February and what an imperative emotional intelligence leadership skill it is! This skill meets the human need to feel heard and understood and I bet we can agree that we need more of this in everyday life. A more caring, compassionate world – what a great dream! We can control what we do and say (not anyone else), we can take that baby step forward, and we can reflect and come back (we are human after all), so what action are you taking to be more empathetic?
I look forward to hearing from you about the above question and also look forward to sharing quotes, thoughts, and publications around Employee Engagement this month!

February 1, 2023 – 25th Newsletter
February is a great time to reflect on your personal and professional development goals – how are you doing? Are these realistic? How can I break them down into baby steps to not be overwhelming? What do I need to take off? What do I need to add to the goals? I encourage you to focus on 1-5 goals and track your progress at least monthly. It doesn’t matter who you are or what level you are, humans are meant to grow, develop, and evolve so concentrate on those things that align with what you want to bring to 2023!
Side note – February is a big month for me as I’m hitting a big birthday milestone this year! I’m well into a reflection process; my word for 2023 is happiness!
I’d love to know – what’s a development goal for you this year? What’s your word for 2023?
I look forward to hearing from you!

It's a new year and I'm excited to see what magic unfolds in 2023! Last month we talked about relationships and how it's critical to treat each other as humans - check out my monthly Pulse Point and weekly quotes and Think about it Thursdays below. In January, I look forward to discussing an "oldie but goodie" book I read, Jim Collins's "Good to Great"! Although the book was published many years ago, there are key concepts that hold true today!
Looking forward to another year of humanizing leadership with you!
