Hi Mike, I only found your blog today and really enjoyed this.
Your thoughts on spikiness hit home. A leader’s ability to stay steady during the messy parts of change makes such a difference. I’ve lost count of the times I’ve had to help calm things down in the middle of a big shift. Sometimes it’s just listening and letting people vent. Sometimes giving a clearer perspective. Or even just giving a simple pep talk to remind everyone it’s ok if the journey is messier and longer than we hoped for.
Looking forward to reading more of your writing.
And by the way, I tried to connect on LinkedIn but it asked for your email. Would love to connect there too. I’m a long-time MFP user and currently exploring my next role, so figured I’d reach out. Super big fan of what you’re building.
