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.
As I move out of my professional halftime, I’m excited to embark on my next journey. As of 9/9/2020, the book is available for pre-order and my new job starts at McCann China.

Take a breath.
A grown man hung up on me today, after shouting at me for a couple of (long) minutes. Over what seemed to be a small misunderstanding. One that could have been calmly discussed with a few words. Man, I don't think anyone's hung up on me since I broke up with my...
Are you ready to be a CEO?
I recently enjoyed reading The Motive, in which Lencioni stresses that mission must be a leader’s greatest motivation. He notes there are two kinds of executives - those who see the job as a personal reward and those who want to help others. Are you clear on your own...
