There is something comforting seeing movement back in our society & economy.   In the world of work, more & more organizations are starting to open up. Our clients are working through return and recovery plans

Happy Friday,   One thing I have noticed is the impact of working remotely on myself due to the sense of less connectivity with my team.   We are talking, zooming (yes, this is now a word), emailing, & texting.   Yet, it’s not the same.   There’s a new phenomenon happening;   Remote work

Happy Friday,   Like many of you, I was particularly looking forward to this weekend.   I realized mid-week that I was feeling more weary than normal.   I think a long weekend is exactly what we all need. For me & my team, these last 8 weeks have been full of challenges &, fortunately,

Good Monday Morning,   How ironic, this cover is from Harry Rosen’s magazine that just landed in my mailbox.   This seems so Feb 2020.     There are two key messages on the front page.
