I want to chat about your online security for a minute. One of Kim’s favourite words is ‘decentralize.’ To her, decentralize means giving the power back to the people. See, Kim is one of those people gifted with the ability to see possibility. (Maybe it came from homeschooling three kids, maybe from being immersed in […]
My entire life, I have been notorious for forgetting birthdays, anniversaries, and special occasions. So, last week, it came as a complete shock when I remembered something. I was chatting with a colleague, trying to find a date that worked for both of us and while looking at the calendar, shouted. “OMG. It is six […]
Like so many traditional silos in business, technology leadership has also morphed and changed. And if you’re like me, you might look at the whole tech leadership side with a jaundiced eye. I want to share some of the things I see in the tech world and bring it all home for you and your […]

We’ve all had those kinds of moments. Here’s my latest. I received an invite to chat on a podcast about mindset/mental health/meditation. From […]
I want to talk about your audience. Your customer. You’ve heard me drone on about always keeping your impact on the customer front and center in everything you do. “Always speak and write and position yourself around the IMPACT or transformation you give the client.” How many times have you read some version of this […]
I have a confession. I have never really paid a lot of attention to the topic of business security from the technological side in any operation I have led or launched.
