Insight, advice and inspiration for making strategic action stick
I am active in a number of spheres. I consult, I speak, I write, I do research and every once in a while I do something completely out of left field. The following posts represent announcements of events and activities that I am involved with. In many cases, they are webinars that I will be delivering. I'll also share interesting events, writing and publications that might appeal.

We communicate all the time, mostly without thinking about what we’re doing. The problem isn’t just that we communicate casually, but that in doing so we believe that we have accomplished what we set out to do. Communicating is the most difficult of tasks, and the consequences of failure range from the trivial to the catastrophic. How do we share our thoughts with another and know—without doubt—that they now understand what we intended to communicate?
Join me as I review Adam Grant’s “Think Again.” How do you change your mind? How do you let go of what you think you know, and relearn what is more helpful and relevant?

There is a universal structure that underlies almost all of human functioning. Masters of their craft value it. Others ignore it at their peril. It is enormously simple, and yet incredibly complex. The three-act structure is the anchor that guides almost every meaningful interaction we encounter. Why does it work the way it does? Where does its power come from? Most importantly, how do you apply meaningfully?
Write, and you could become influential, famous and fabulously wealthy. While that might happen, writing rarely pays off with any of those rewards. So why write? Peter has written more than a 1,000 articles. During that time he’s stumbled on a few secrets about writing that he was never taught in school. We learn by doing, so that might not be surprising. We also learn more about what we know by writing it down. In this session Peter will explore how to extract the most benefit possible from this solitary act.
