As people around the world honor the life of Nelson Mandela, his legacy of leadership for peace and justice offers much for the corporate world. Mandela reminds us all of our True work- to preserve and uphold human dignity. For if we cannot preserve human dignity through our businesses, our commerce and economic system, then […]

In our daily living we base decisions and actions on scarcity. I frequently hear from my coaching clients and friends they lack time- time to be with family, time to pursue what they love, time to rest, sleep, play. As your time becomes more scarce, you value it more. Basic human nature. Economics is based […]
