My very first post!
After more than a year here, wohoooo!
I’m excited to launch my weekly newsletter via Substack!
Quick context: I’ve been writing a newsletter for L&D leaders and HROs for a while now (on Kit), and I’m moving here to connect with more people who genuinely care about leadership development that works, not just what sounds good in slide decks.
What to expect?
Weekly insights on:
Emotional intelligence unfiltered
Human skills AI can’t replace
Systems thinking for L&D leaders
Neuroscience-backed capability building
Training & Learning for actual behavior change
No motivational fluff. No generic leadership platitudes.
With 20+ years across career pivots, mistakes, and milestones, I’ve had the privilege to work with and guide thousands of global leaders, including my time as an AWS EQ Champion (while leading as an LXD & UX Researcher).
If you’re building leadership capability for the realities of today’s organizations, the pace, the complexity, and the humans navigating it all, you’re in the right place.
The first full issue drops this week.
Let’s build capability that actually moves the needle.
