Fed & Directed

I am honored to be included in the Film & Media Studies welcome video which is shown on loop at UCSB's Pollock Theatre.

A great team arrived and set up quickly and professionally.  They fed lines and directed me, both of which add to my on-camera experience.  Thankfully, they also powdered the glare from my face.

Building YOUR Culture

What is the right culture for you, your organization, your customers, your partners and your advisors?  We've recently had quite a number of staff changes at Oniracom which has put this question at the forefront of our hiring process, staff meetings, team building and most any H.R. related activity.

After discussing this with my team, colleagues and wife, I stumbled across this Harvard Business Review article titled "How to Build a Culture of Originality."  While the article's suggestions are wonderful, I highly recommend weaving a thread of Emotional Intelligence training to frame your team feedback mechanisms.  

And if you're looking for a nice starting point to learn how Emotional Intelligence practices can advance your team and sharpen your leadership skills, try this book

Scream!

Don't forget to scream your wildest dreams to the universe.  Often, we assume our vision is clearly shared with ourselves, when in reality we need to check in with our inner monster.

Here is a great book if you're looking for some inspiration.
