This year I am  re-commiting to
“Practicing Gratitude” – On a daily basis!

I got busy and let it slip away and I missed it.  I loved the daily practice of writing down things that make me grateful.

I found it puts it puts challenges and successes in perspective and makes me a better person, a better friend and a much better leader!

I want to thank all of our readers, for sharing precious moments from your busy day. We’ve shared nearly 5000 professional development learning opportunities since January of 2011.  This has allowed me personally to grow my skills and communicate with so many of you growing yours.

THANK YOU
You Remind Me How Important It Is To
Take Time To Give Back To Others!

I want to thank my many colleagues in Project Management, Business Analysis & Agile Endeavors,  who inspire me with their blogs, their writing and the opportunity to discuss project management and professional development. It really is a wonderfully diverse and fascinating international community and so many people contribute so much to benefit all of us.

THANK YOU
You Make Me A Better Community Leader!

I also want to thank my team for their hard work, patience and for the challenges they offer.  I try to recognize the effort and dedication they make to the cause – and … I even want to thank them also for occasionally pointing that out at time when I may be distracted and not recognize the effort that their task requires.

To All Of You – THANK YOU
You Keep Me Centered & Happy With All I Do!

I have spent this last year exploring the dynamic effect of “Influence” change management and practical servant leadership.  Creating an integrative positive culture that is supportive and effective in the workplace without the direct authority to demand the change.

The extent to which the power of Influence within the organization to create purpose and focus has honestly surprised me.  The changes I see in people and the difference that management can make by simply practicing respect towards their people is well beyond what I imagined.

My path from software development team member to IT Project Management and then to Corporate Culture & Change Management has been a long and winding path. It didn’t always follow my plan.  BUT… each and every experience helped make me a better person and a more humble appreciative respectful leader.

I am very Grateful to have the opportunity to help make change in an organization that needs direction and support now more than ever and I appreciate the opportunity to give back  as so many have done for me throughout my career.

Feel Free to Join me on LinkedIn  & Twitter  …
I would be Honored to chat with you this coming year!

So to all of you…
Happy New Year’s & A Prosperous 2015!
