“Should I stay or Should I go?”
According to research by Randstad US, the top reason for employees staying and leaving a job is pay. That pay is essential doesn’t come as a big surprise.
Although toxic work culture contributes to talent leaving, it’s not the only reason.
Today’s workers value work-life balance, flexibility, and growth opportunities. Without these, employees are more likely to seek out better opportunities elsewhere.
In fact,
Work-life balance is so crucial that 66% of employees surveyed won’t consider a job that doesn’t offer at least ten paid vacation days. About half would work for a bad boss if they had unlimited vacation time.

They say I should write here an impressive summary of my accomplishments, preferably talking about myself in the third person, to showcase my best professional self.
They say a lot of things…
I do the opposite.
I don’t have a 7-minute solution to anything.
But I do have thoughts, insights, and experience, all of which I share with you.
You can’t squeeze me into a box.
It’s been tried, it didn’t work.
What I am not:
I’m an author of no New York Times Bestseller.
I’m unranked as the top Modern Leadership Expert.
I’m (hopefully) somewhere in the 5,869,329 of the top creative and strategic minds in business & marketing. (crossing fingers)
I’m the un-influencer according to non-influencers everywhere.
I’m not the “father of anything” (duh).
But,
I’m a listener to leaders (sometimes I speak, rarely do I whisper…)
I’m a speaker to many – of the topics that should be shared.
I’m a sharer of strategies and tactics to help you succeed.
In other words:
Modern Leadership Advisor
Strategy & Digital Marketing Consultant
Keynote Speaker
Writer (a book you ask? it’s in the works)
Always learning.
Always exploring.
Always testing.
Incrementally improving.
