Hi everyone,
Every now and then I make a conscious effort to stop and just reflect on how good life is, even if I don’t feel like it. Sure, it is full of challenges, but even then, often challenges are only as big as we make them.
Over the past week I have had the privilege of travelling around the country working with both my team and with clients across QLD, VIC, SA and WA and I met some wonderful and interesting people. Once again, I discovered that everyone has a story to tell if we are prepared to stop and listen, and in every story, there is a lesson to be learned.
It made me think about how I am living my life and how my story impacts others when we meet. I guess we will never really know and that is OK. But it does make us reflect on every interaction we have and realise that as seemingly unimportant as it might seem at the time, it is an opportunity to impact someone’s life, even if it is just through encouragement.
Sometimes people will try to impact us in a negative way, but don’t let them. Life is good!
I know this might sound a bit simple, but life is simple and sometimes we just need to stop and remind ourselves of that.
So, whoever you meet this week, listen to their story and share yours with them, because I believe experiences are meant to be shared, that is how we learn and grow.
Have an amazing week and learn from someone this week.

Transforming Relationships Within The Workplace
Some of the toughest roles for modern day leaders is dealing with the ‘difficult people’ situations at work and navigating challenging conversations with their peers and bosses.
Leaders are now expected to meet their targets, engage staff, give regular positive feedback, build great relationships and coach their people to create a high-performance culture.
But leaders are also required to address poor performance and inappropriate behaviours quickly and effectively. All within an environment where people know their rights and expect fair and reasonable treatment.
The good news is that Having Conversations That Matter will create better leaders, build workplace resilience, transform relationships and create clear economic consequences for the organisation.
