Thanks so much to our client Holst for bringing us on to the team for the newly completed Carlton Civic Center!

Our hats off to the entire team who made the project possible!

Officially on the 2nd half of the tour- with only 4 stops remaining! Two major learnings from this stop:
This was held at the Detroit Institute of Arts - Detroit's #1 museum. We had our own private room for the session, but our check in table was visible to the public who was exploring the museum. If you've been to a tour stop, you know our check in table is covered in stickers for attendees. Surprisingly, we had a TON of people - random people walking around the museum - come up to the table and take stickers - kids and adults (check the comments below, I'll even add a sneaky photo that I took to prove it)! By the end of the event, there were only 2 out of maybe 150 stickers left on the table (30% attendees and 70% taken by the public). Had I known the power of a WELL DESIGNED (because I do take pride in our amazing designer and tour merch) stickers, I would've had a bonus one created specifically for people not in ERGs - or even one that defines ERGs in a creative way. 💡 The takeaway - make sure your free swag (especially ones that everyone can have) actually peaks interest of people with both the design and message.
Speaking of peaking interest, I had to explain to dozens of people the "obvious" question of What Is An ERG?
A question that's plagued me - rather ironically - because the standard definition is full of buzzwords that mean nothing to the average person. Redefining ERGs had already been something on my radar, so this was the ultimate chance to test out how close I am. Some of my favorite people to explain this to were the kids - "what's an erg?" 🤣 "erg" pronounced as one word.
💬 "It's how you make friends at work!" is what I often landed on - and hopefully planted some seeds of love for the future employees. That answer often intrigued the adults, giving me the opportunity to elaborate more and even get a few new Linkedin followers!
All in all, I feel like more of this work needs to be done. TOO MANY PEOPLE have NO IDEA what ERGs are. Adding this into my MANY To-Do's for the ERG space 🤔 more to come! Excited to a very modest Denver stop this week!

Huge shoutout to Carla Tinsley-Smith for making this happen!
Pushing for equality means standing up for your marginalized employees no matter their sexuality. Women only make up 3 percent of workers in the trades and that number has been stagnet for decades. Organizations like the Carpenters’ Regional Council and Northstar Access need to start holding their male members accountable when they humiliate and harass the women workers. Equality is about treating all workers the same and not putting others above eachother based on gender or sexuality. Stop the bullying and hold those who are guilty of harassment and bullying accountable. You want more women in the trades then start holding your male members and your male management accountable for the horrible ways the treat women workers.
The Statue of Liberty arrived in New York Harbor on this day in 1885. A gift from the people of France to the US. This monumental gesture symbolizes more than just friendship; it embodies the power of collaboration, the exchange of ideas, and the unyielding spirit of #progress.
The L&D industry thrives on #collaboration, #knowledgesharing, and #continuousimprovement.
Are we fostering #partnerships that #enhance our #learning programs? Are we open to new #perspectives that can drive #innovation?
Let's build a future where the exchange of #ideas and collective #growth illuminate our path #forward, much like Lady Liberty lights the way for countless generations.
Team: On the eve of Memorial Day and not much more than a week from the 80th Anniversary of the beginning of Operation Overlord is a good time to reflect on the powerful gift we have been bestowed through the sacrifice of others. Specifically, the opportunity to effectively govern ourselves as free people. With that inheritance comes the compelling obligation to pass it on. Effective self-governance is not entertainment, or sport, or theater, and celebrity is not leadership. Representative democracy is tough work that demands curiosity, the respect for the rule-of-law, and citizens who can disagree agreeably on matters of policy knowing that they share a great many common concerns. Similarly, leaders of character understand their own accountability and the duty to others that comes with authority. As I see it, we owe future generations no less than the opportunity that has been given to us at great cost to so many. Keep pounding…W/r, 🦅🦅

Warrior to Love: Show-Up
I recently had an inspiring meeting with Councilman Michael Boylan from Jacksonville City Council District 6. It reminded me of the power of community engagement and the importance of taking action to drive change.
Years ago, I considered a political career, but my wife and I decided it wasn't the right path for us. Instead, I focused on connecting with our local representatives, believing that true change starts with us.
During our conversation, we discussed the book "A Quiet Revolution," which explores the history of Jacksonville's consolidation. Jacksonville Historical Society
Both Councilman Boylan and I share a passion for history and a vision for progress in our city. We reflected on the challenges and the numerous failed attempts to unite and advance Jacksonville over the years.
One of the biggest questions remains: how do you unite a community divided in the largest city by land mass in the USA?
While I am still working on the answer, I know that getting involved and building relationships is a significant step forward.
As a private citizen, I've had the privilege of connecting with some of the best professionals and actively participating in our community. My passion lies in solving problems and fostering resilience in relationships.
Nothing happens unless you make it happen. It takes everyone to participate in creating and sustaining livable communities.
Everything starts with you!
Let's take action, show up, and work together to make City of Jacksonville the best place to live on earth.
