Your executive team is resisting change. How can you break through their resistance and drive transformation?
Typically - with change comes serious emotions, and as soon as those emotions are engaged, making sure they help instead of hurt becomes an ongoing practice. The plan I've come to put in play is: 1) Keep notes, journals, or whatever works for me at the time, when things are going well, and changes (or constants) are working for and with me, so I have something to reference when they don't. 2) In times of relative calm or constants, find a study of emotional intelligence - for me, it's Last 8% content. Like any other survival skill, the time to practice is before the response is necessary.

Here's how you can clarify misconceptions about delegation in community outreach.
What's been true for me: establishing trust and avoiding over-delegation are the same. Here's what I mean by that: on a high-trust team, regardless of role, all individuals can share which parts of any project excite, challenge, and scare the heck out of them. Trusted leaders will actively listen and delegate based on strengths and stretches. Those leaders will also provide clear visibility into which aspects of the project they'll pick up and which pieces they can and can't offer practical and tactical support. Trusted leaders don't need to know how to do everything, but they do need to know enough to help get the team to the finish line. That level of knowledge comes from building the strategy and being part of the work in progress.

You're an Internal Communications professional. How do you choose the best employee onboarding software?
Build enough resilience to be honest about the current barriers to successful onboarding. Is it employee capacity? Interest? Onboarding objectives? I’ve found that the “reasons” for unsuccessful onboarding can at times be more feeling than fact.
