Mentee Reading | We remember moments and experiences - as individuals, employees and customers. Those that endure help us either connect, engage and belong or disconnect, distance, limit engagement. Experiences are important. Memories are important. Journeys and outcomes are important.

Learn To Love The Problem

Mentee Reading | Having problems is *not* the problem. Can you find the opportunity and build a better or novel solution? What do you do when you're faced with a big decision? How can you Work Creatively! to be more effective as a strategist, innovator or problem-solver? What do you do when a wild problem requires a leap in the dark? How can you seek viewpoints, be open minded, question your own judgement or conclusions, look for novelty, adopt integrative thinking and look for what you can learn?

Love What You Do and Do What Sustains You

Mentee Reading | The path to satisfaction is not linear. Hopefully, along the way you’ll discover the crucial intersection between what you love to do and how you contribute it to others. Fulfilment doesn’t come from one-off peaks, but from many consistent good days. So how do we sustain performance, foster deeper connections, know ourselves, find more in life and do what we love?

Lost Leaders

Mentee Reading | When life and work don’t go as planned, sometimes under challenging and confronting circumstances, there can be a painful sense of being unable to find the way. Rather than staying lost or being stuck in ‘not knowing’ or making mental mistakes about the future, look for that breakthrough.

Strategy and Future Choices

Mentee Reading | What is strategy and why is it so difficult? This reading series will help answer these questions. Strategies are fundamentally about choice, difference and advantage. It is as much about deciding what not to do and being alert to signals or noise, as it is about what will be done. It incorporates a systems perspective, it is intent-focused, level shifting, opportunistic and timely.
