This Inspirational Blog started in March of 2020. We had just received word that our workplace was moving to a mandatory telework policy until the COVID-19 situation became more stable. As an office that enjoyed a nurturing culture with lots of face-to-face interaction and collaboration, we were concerned that the virtual nature of future work was going to miss our normal sense of interpersonal community. In order to combat this, several of us suggested ways to "stay connected." One member of the team offered to do a weekly meditation and mindfulness post. Another signed up to share weekly physical exercises to ensure we weren't sitting behind a Zoom computer screen all day. I stepped forward and offered to provide a daily Inspirational Quote and Message to keep the team motivated. This was something I had set as a goal for myself years ago, attempting to put nearly 30 years' worth of leadership stories and experiences onto paper.

​

After the first couple of months of attempting a clever and (hopefully) humorous motivational message on a daily basis, wiser heads prevailed and the messaging evolved into a Weekly post - but still aimed at sharing some type of insightful application of self-growth and development in the leadership domain. What started as a small attempt to keep our team of 15 employees motivated has now turned into a weekly list-serve that has more than 200 subscribers in 5 different countries. If you'd like to be added to the subscriber list, be sure to leave your email address in my contact form.

Thanks for visiting my Blog site! I hope you enjoy reading my posts as much as I enjoy writing them.
