Networking, horses and wearing one pair of shoes for an entire week – welcome to Stampede!

Happy Stampede! Such an interesting week in our lovely city! There are those that completely shut down and dive into BD and networking; there are others that book vacation and get out of town; there are some who barely notice and continue status quo and of course there are the accountants torn between events and Q2! So far I’ve been focused mostly on the kids and baseball but looking forward to a few activities over the next week. How about you? Whatever your plans here is an interesting and relevant article on networking to consider: http://ow.ly/EaTw30kQSHc

Fighting into the valley – a take on algorithms impact

There are moments when you see an ad and you have to ask “what in the world did I read or search that implied I’d want that??”

Or other times where you start exploring a huge decision or idea and the world starts to speak back & you feel it’s fate but then realize: “Wait, is it just an echo chamber telling you want to hear or an algorithm reading you?”

This article has tricks to “fight back”.

A wealth of information, a growing intelligent dark web, ideas and facts always in your pocket & available – the benefits of technology, social media and the internet are endless, but there’s value to being aware.

As old as time

Touch once! As old as time is this time management strategy. Old audit rules were never duplicate documentation. Why do we see people duplicate efforts, data entry, dishes in sink vs dishwasher and other examples (email being the worst of course!) We know this! Do you forget too? #timemanagement #touchonce

Canada Day & Baseball

Enjoying this Canada Day at the diamond. Connection is at the intersection of happiness, success and health and there is nothing better than seeing your child experience it with his team! Lessons for business, happiness and longevity come quickly with kids sport and it’s my goal to see my boys make it a habit (like their dad!).

Baseball especially is a sport that replicates life lessons!
