When you ask people what's 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘱𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮, 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘆𝗼𝘂.

𝟴𝟯 leaders. 𝟭𝟵 cities. One hour together...

Here's what they said is actually inhibiting their growth:
Capital. Past performance. Corporate buyer access. Viable leads. Reliable staff. Connections.

This isn't theory or what we "think". This is what the room said.

Then we asked what they want next. 𝟴𝟯% said 𝗕𝗢𝗧𝗛 government 𝗔𝗡𝗗 corporate contracting opportunities. Not one path. Both.

Hey , this is what Week 1 of Tangible Thursdays delivered for your Capital Readiness Program members. And we're just getting started.

The next 12 weeks were built for exactly what this room told us.

Tomorrow, May 28 at 6:30 PM Eastern: Week 2, Reading the Roadmap. Cazzie is leading us through how to translate your readiness score into specific moves for GovCon and CorpCon.

Two important next steps and ways to plug in:

7 weeks ago I returned to argumentative paper writing for the first time in over two decades...

Over the weekend, I turned in the final paper for GRC 600: Doctoral Academic Study and Writing, and I am walking away with a sharper research voice and a reminder that continuous development is a discipline, not a slogan.

The paper argued that the replacement of in-person workplace interaction with digital communication tools has measurably intensified employee loneliness and degraded organizational performance, and that leaders who invest in relational practices can reverse those effects. The research drew on 16 scholarly sources and forced me to defend a position with evidence rather than experience alone. That kind of academic rigor stretches every assumption you walk in with, and it is exactly what doctoral work demands.

Next up is MGT 616: Organizational Change and Development in Management. The transition could not be more fitting. The argument I closed GRC 600 with, that workplaces require continuous relational stewardship rather than one-time fixes, is the exact territory MGT 616 will press on. I am already drafting my first paper for that course on the human dimensions of algorithmic change inside federal agencies.

To anyone in the middle of advanced study, here is what I am taking with me: show up for the work, even when it humbles you...

The discipline pays off.

Cheers,

The government's Q4 is fast approaching... will you be ready?

Quick word before Q4 hits.

The federal government's biggest spending quarter is almost here. Three hundred billion on the table. Hundreds of new contracts. The companies that are ready right now will catch the wave. The companies that aren't will watch it pass.

Which one is yours.

We've built Tangible Thursdays with C3PI for the second group. Twelve weeks. Twelve live build sessions. Free.

Here's what makes this different from every other webinar you've sat through. Every Thursday ends with the actual work done. A capability statement, built live. A compliance matrix, generated in front of you. A pricing model, exported to Excel. A pipeline loaded into a working CRM. Not slides. Not concepts. The actual asset, in your hands, before the session ends.

Take it home Thursday. Use it Friday.

Miss these twelve sessions and you miss the window. May 21st through August 2026.

Free for NMSDC Capital Readiness members.

The clock is already moving.

Yesterday at the 𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗔𝗦 𝗣𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵𝘄𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗰𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗺𝘆 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀, I challenged a room full of future Emmy winners to stop settling for mediocrity and start building a life of 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡 𝙥𝙪𝙧𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙚...

What you do between 18 and 40 will define the rest of your life. That was the message I delivered yesterday from the stage of the Academy Awards, and it is the message I want every young creator, dreamer, and doer to hear right now.

In this clip, I take high school and college students on a real journey, one built on courage, personal growth, and the truth most people are too afraid to say out loud.

Mediocrity is a 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲. Purpose is a 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲. The window you are standing in right now is sacred, and the decisions you make inside of it will echo across every chapter of your life that follows.

This is for every student or young adult who is tired of playing small. This is for every young leader who is ready to stop waiting for permission.

Tune in, take notes, share it with someone who needs to hear it, and let us ignite that spark together.

The next generation of Emmy winners, founders, and changemakers is watching. 𝘔𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘰𝘰.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗼 𝘀𝗶𝘇𝘇𝗹𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴...

It is a genuine honor to share that I have been selected as a presenter at the upcoming 𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗔𝗦 𝗣𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵𝘄𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 on Saturday, May 2, 2026.

To the Executive Board and Board of Governors of NATAS PSW, thank you for the trust, the consideration, and the opportunity to stand alongside such a distinguished lineup of fellow presenters. Being included in a moment of this caliber is humbling, and I am grateful.

Here is why this night matters. NATAS Pacific Southwest is the very same chapter of the 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗰𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗺𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗧𝗲𝗹𝗲𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝗺𝗺𝘆® 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱.

Many of them, in just a few short years, will be standing on the Emmy stage themselves, and it is an honor to be present at the very beginning of that journey.

Showing up for emerging talent is not optional, 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘭.

Summit recap 2 of 2: https://youtu.be/hUYKBFKIqxE?si=RNCJ5zNaMo5aeF8N

This is video two of two from the 𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗚𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁 recap, and before you watch, I want to tell you a story that happened because of that room on March 26.

On Summit day, two founders walked in not knowing each other. One builds hardware and peripherals technology, the backbone of what keeps systems running. The other does hardware installation and access control, the hands that deploy and secure it in real buildings for real people. 𝙊𝙣 𝙥𝙖𝙥𝙚𝙧, two separate businesses running two separate races. 𝙄𝙣 𝙥𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙚, two halves of the same solution walking past each other for years.

During a connection break, they ended up in the same conversation. No agenda, no script. Within fifteen minutes, they saw it. The hardware company kept hearing, "Who installs this? Who secures it?" The installation company kept hearing, "Where do we source the right equipment?" Each had been sending those customers somewhere else, losing revenue and the relationship at the same time.

Today, those two companies are actively forging a partnership that lets them walk into opportunities together, scale each other's footprint, and serve clients end to end. A hallway conversation is becoming a real alliance.

Here is the lesson. We talk a lot about contracts, capture strategy, and pipeline. All of it matters. But the most undervalued asset in this industry is the room you are standing in. The person next to you at lunch might be holding the missing piece of your business model and not even know it. Humanizing government contracting is not just about how we engage agencies. It is about how we engage each other.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲. 𝗜𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝘆.

𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗚𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁 Recap Video 1 of 2: https://youtu.be/HgDwisFUokA

It has been approximately three weeks and two days since we embarked in Atlanta for the Humanizing Government Contracting Summit, and the 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗻 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵.

What happened in that room on March 26 was bigger than an event. It was a signal. Founders, federal buyers, corporate leaders, and operators came together around a shared conviction that the future of procurement, contracting, and business development has to be rebuilt around people. 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀. 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀. 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗵𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱. That energy did not end when the doors closed. It is still moving through every follow-up call, every new partnership, and every introduction that has come out of the day.

This is video one of two from the official Summit recap series. Both videos capture the sessions, the connections, and the spirit of what we built together, and there is more coming.
