Back to School Edition

Technically, it’s still summer.  However, when September rolls around it means only one thing – back to school!  And Fall.  But, that can be a blog for another day. As a child, I looked forward to going back to school.  A new outfit, clean white sneakers , sharp pencils and brand new notebooks – exciting!  I was ready for the pearls of wisdom my teachers would bestow upon me and my friends.  My children [...]

The Power of Self-Awareness and Empathy

By Erinne Tripp, Director of Client Services “When you plant lettuce if it does not grow well you don’t blame the lettuce.  You look for reasons it is not doing well.  It may need fertilizer, or more water, or less sun.  You never blame the lettuce.  Yet, if we have problems with our friends or family (or co-workers), we blame the other person.  But if we know how to take care of them, they [...]

The mission of Cradles to [...]

Why They Stay and Why They Leave

From a business perspective, what is the most important focus you have? Shareholder returns? Profitability? Employee engagement and retention? Investor relationships? I would say that, while all these are important, none are as important as a Value Focus. “Companies that solely focus on competition will ultimately die. Those that focus on value creation will thrive.” – Edward de Bono At the end of the day, customers purchase your products and services because of the [...]

Integrity First, Leadership Second

By: John Griffith, Vice President, Consulting Services “The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionably integrity.” -Dwight D. Eisenhower I was jolted from sleep as the notes of Reveille thundered across the courtyard. In a blur of fatigue and adrenaline, I leapt from bed into a fitness uniform and ran out the door. At 4:45am, the sun wouldn’t rise for another hour, but the warmth still clung to the night air [...]

Can You Handle the Truth?

We all struggle with giving and receiving feedback. It can hit an emotional cord or remind us of an awful experience. Unfortunately we have all been on the receiving end of feedback that wasn’t delivered effectively. However, receiving feedback is one of the most transformational gifts we can receive, so why is it so difficult to give and receive? A key responsibility of any manager is to provide open, honest, direct and transparent feedback to [...]
