Greetings!

I am off Friday morning to Louisville Kentucky to facilitate a Coaching Institute through Sunday. My part in the institute is helping them to market this new venture.

As an executive coach, I work with individuals to help them realize their goals and objectives.These goals and objectives range from enhancing job performance, image, brand, dress, etiquette to finetuning sales and networking skills. In today’s environment, having a coach is no longer seen as a negative but rather a positive in one’s life.

While I spending time waiting in the airport for the flight, I love to watch people. What a great place to do this! I observe families getting ready for the year’s vacation and already yelling at each other, I often think that trip is going to be fun, ha! There are those who are happy, sad, frustrated, excited, looking for love….the list is endless.

For those of you who are people watchers like myself, where is a great place to observe people and what are some of your best observations? I have used many a story of this type of observation in my training, coaching and speaking engagements.

Please share….

Have a great weekend!

Greetings!

What wonderful responses to my first blog!!! Thank everyone for taking time to share their thoughts. Isn’t it interesting to hear different options and the use of color to portray your image/brand to your market? Some of you responded to my email and I am trying to determine how to post those where everyone call see them and haven’t figured it out. I will keep trying! I will periodically return to colors in a variety of different ways and hope you will respond.

Today I turn my attention to leadership. I will be speaking to over 200 people at a conference in Chicago in mid August on the topic of leadership. That topic is so broad but I have narrowed it down to illustrating the top six skills or traits necessary to be an effective leader in today’s changing environment. I might even refer to them as the “sexy six”, ha! I would appreciate your insight.

My question posed today is what six leadership skills do you feel are necessary in today’s changing environment? If you have time and give me a “why” that would be great!

Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
