Last week I had the humble honor of hosting the Amazon Business 3P Sales Kick Off event. The planning team was amazing, the presenters were prepared, and the opportunity to connect "IRL" was much needed after holding these virtually for a few years. I was proud to present our 2024 Direct Sales (NSR) GTM plan to the broad audience, and so happy to have the chance to strategize with my own team in-person finally! Cheers to a fantastic 2024!

👀 I think Nicole's illustrator gave me way too much credit for still having dark hair 🤣, but I'm honored & humbled she chose to include me among leaders profiled in her book: "Just Be REAL: A Manager's Field Guide."

This workbook is designed to offer tactics, share best-practices, and force "self-awareness" for those of us in a people-leadership role. You can grab the book, flip it open and find a technique to challenge yourself with today at work.

Go grab a copy. AND... if you want to hear a little about the premise behind the book, Listen to me interview her on my ManagerMirror podcast.

Culture is often referred to as “the way things are done around here.” But to be useful, we need to get more specific than that. The best companies recognize that there are three elements to a culture: behaviors, systems, and practices, all guided by an overarching set of values. A great culture...
