Palmer Group’s Post

Curious about where curiosity can lead you? For Wendy Walker, it led her from being a high school graduate all the way to Assistant Vice President of Corporate Strategy. Her curiosity and resilience, backed by Unum's support, helped her raise a family while pursuing a full-time education and also taking on new leadership roles across various parts of the organization. Today, Wendy plays a key role in shaping Unum Group’s growth strategies. Wendy's advice? Always be on the lookout for opportunities! From taking on single-incumbent roles to proposing outside-the-box ideas to address business issues, Wendy encourages everyone to take chances. Challenges that bring personal joy are worth it. #TeamUnum #CareerDevelopmentMonth #CareerPlanning

Insanely impressed by the extraordinary display of leadership by the CEO Manny Medina of Outreach🌟 My wife Brianna Van Tuinen, who joined Outreach just 2 months ago, received a personal call from the CEO himself - expressing gratitude for her hard work! It's not every day that you see a leader take time out to acknowledge and appreciate their team members. 🙌 Here are my key takeaways: • Personal recognition can deeply impact employee morale. • Strong leadership values manifest in simple gestures. • A grateful environment cultivates high-performance teams. Manny Medina truly set the bar high for what it means to be an exceptional leader in today's corporate world. Hat tip to you, sir! 👏👏 #Leadership #EmployeeRecognition #WorkCulture

Thank you Monika Kalra Varma and Julia R. Wilson (she/her) for this beautifully transparent and emotional conversation about workplace transitions, executive director leadership transition, and board service. So many takeaways, including what responsibility board of directors have to the staff and "stayers" (it's not difficult or hard, but does take intentionality!). Another big through-line revolves around communication and the absolute necessity of it. Highly, highly recommend! https://lnkd.in/esharbni

Frankly, I don't care if you're a man or a woman. Either way, you need to OWN YOUR GROWTH! ⬇ ⬇ ⬇ For each of us, having a #growthmindset is arguably the single most important thing you can do to accelerate your career trajectory. For Employers who want an edge, instilling a growth mindset in your #workforceculture and developing your next generation of leaders is the key to your success. When you put #peoplefirst and invest in your #1 asset, only then will you EARN their loyalty, respect, and peak performance. How are you helping others to grow? ⬇ This question is important because the most fulfilling and effective way to grow is by helping as many other people as possible! If you're looking to improve your #organizationalwellbeing or for a partner in your holistic #peoplestrategy, #gallagher has you covered and I'd love to connect further!

Leading participants on a journey of discovery and learning is so rewarding. I enjoyed presenting ‘My Purpose-Driven Career’ at the Crown Leadership Summit recently - thank you for inviting me to present on such a perfect topic. I shared a number of tools including CliftonStrengths to help the participants design and create a more fulfilling work life. Fantastic discussions! Note to self: Next time remember to get some good quality photos of me actually presenting 🤦♀️ 😂 #purpose #strengthscoaching #careercoaching
