Join me this Wednesday, Sept 2, 11-11:45 for The Leadership Exchange.

Come listen to what we did and bring your questions.

Does your company assume technical experts will automatically become good people leaders once they're promoted?

They won't, unless you intentionally equip them.

In this short video, I talk about helping organizations build stronger managers through Launch! The Manager's Masterclass.

If you're responsible for developing managers in your organization, take a minute to watch.

A privilege to be a guest on the Tamarisk Business Advisors LLC podcast!
We chatted about the challenges midsize businesses face when they're big enough to need talent and leadership development - but not big enough to have it in-house.

In this episode, Phil Harwood sits down with Perry Anne Scott, founder of Converge Coaching & Consulting, to explore what it really takes to build strong lea...

People sometimes ask what kind of work my firm actually does. Here’s a fun way to hear about it - a podcast chat hosted by ACEC Georgia.

We chatted about some of my favorite topics, including:

• What healthy, effective firm culture looks like in practice – and what it doesn’t
• How DiSC reveals team dynamics, strengths, and gaps
• Practical ways leaders can use DiSC style insights to manage more effectively
• Balancing “hiring for fit” with building diversity of thought, style, and background
• Early signs you may have a culture problem
• What it really takes to strengthen team culture
• And the big one: how leaders need both technical excellence and people skills to lead a thriving engineering firm

Grateful to ACEC Georgia for hosting the conversation and for all they do to support the engineering industry in our state.

Delegation.

It’s the thing I see managers wrestle with the most. And not just new managers—leaders all the way up the ladder.

Without effective delegation, here’s what you get:

✅ Work bottlenecks
✅ Team members stuck, not growing their abilities
✅ Overwhelm with your workload
✅ Trust erodes
✅ And that nagging feeling like... “I should be better at this.”

That’s why delegation is one of the first things we dig into in Launch! The Manager’s Masterclass.

We learn the why, the how, we role play (yes, it's awkward at first, but really good), we practice with real situations, and then we come back and talk about how it went in "real life." What worked? What didn’t? What we’re trying next.

Accountability and support make all the difference between a great idea and a new habit.

If this sounds like something you—or someone on your team—could use, now’s the time to plan ahead.

Registration for the fall cohort opens August 25.

We only run Launch twice a year and space fills up.

🚨 You’ve just been promoted. Now what?

One day, you're grabbing coffee and cracking jokes with your team. The next, you're leading their performance reviews. Awkward, right?

Navigating the shift from peer to manager is one of the trickiest transitions in a career. Suddenly, you're balancing friendships with leadership responsibilities, setting boundaries without building walls, and figuring out how to inspire people who still remember that one time you couldn’t figure out the office printer.

🏀 Is Your Company’s Bench Strength Holding You Back?

A company that doesn’t develop its managers is like a team with no game plan. Without a strong bench of leaders ready to step up, organizations find themselves scrambling when key roles open up. Succession planning becomes a struggle, decision-making slows, and team morale takes a hit.

Developing managers isn’t just a “nice-to-have”; it’s essential for driving growth, retaining talent, and future-proofing your business. Great managers create great teams, and great teams drive exceptional results.

That’s why we're thrilled to announce Launch! The Manager's Masterclass – a transformative program designed to equip your managers with the skills, confidence, and mindset to lead with impact.

What a fun conversation with my colleague, Jess Villegas, on his Business Radio X podcast. I love how he draws parallels from events in life to management and leadership. Now I want to go rafting!
