In this climate of economic uncertainty, we are seeing many companies tightening their purse strings when it comes to training, leadership development, or other employee engagement programs. This is especially true for what we at Creter Group refer to as “essential skills” (formerly known as soft skills). This includes programs on communications, active listening, leadership, managing conflict, difficult conversations, change management, and even personal psychometric profiles or other team assessment tools.

There is so much going on right now!  “back to school”, “back to basics”, “back to work”.  Why is the focus on what we are getting back to? 

Milestones are a wonderful time for reflection.  I am on a plane returning from speaking at a conference and I met a couple in the airport celebrating their 50th anniversary.  Wow! The airline I flew is celebrating their 100th anniversary in aviation.  It made me think about my own milestone: I am half-way through the 20th anniversary celebration of forming Creter Group. 

Facilitated by Christine Creter of Creter Group, the session supported this national nonprofit’s efforts to lead with more clarity, adaptability, and connection.

Today I had spontaneous joy!!!

That is certainly an odd lead-in for a post… but I had an unexpected pocket of free time today thanks to a scorching heat-wave that made my son’s baseball game a health hazard and therefore cancelled.  Two of my friends found themselves with unexpected time as well and we had an impromptu gathering in an unfinished new office of a dear friend who is mid-move.
