The Present
I launched this site in the midst of my “professional halftime,” in Fall 2019. After 20+ years in the corporate world, I took the summer off to invest in my family (last year, we moved back to the States after eight years in China) and to write a book.

4 Tips for Leading Through Ambiguity
"What's it like, leading in China?" I get this question a lot. Partly because many haven't been to the country in quite a few years, or ever. And partly because the dramatic policy swings have gained worldwide attention! So one thing's for sure: running an agency in...
