Make 2022 the year you stop eating lunch at your desk and stop booking lunch-time meetings with your team. It might sound inconsequential, but lunch is an important time to step away and recharge before tackling your afternoon. It should be treated far more sacredly than it is.

Lack of exercise can have negative impacts not only physically, but mentally as well. In addition, those working sedentary jobs may still be prone to issues such as musculoskeletal disorders. #WorkplaceSafety #Health #MentalHealth thesafetymag.com/ca/topics/o…

The new measures, which take effect today, require employers to implement work-from-home plans - unless physical presence is absolutely required for organizational operations. #Alberta hcamag.com/ca/news/general/a…

Role model = excellence+ vulnerability Showing strength without weakness makes you unattainable and unapproachable. Displaying your faults along with your gifts makes you admirable and relatable.

One of the most common regrets from people who've lived a long life is a failure to act in moments when they knew in their hearts they should have. The prime reason for their inaction? Fear of what others will think of them. #Leadership #Courage #LeadFromTheHeart

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but if you WFH, manufacturing a commute will be two of the most critical moments of your work day. Get a coffee outside the home, go for a walk, meditate, stretch, drive - whatever it is that decompresses you. #wellness #WorkFromHome

You can honor the human experience, or you can drive performance. Great leaders understand it's an “and” situation. You can care and be candid. You can be empathetic and hold someone accountable. You can make accommodations and push towards goals. How have you observed the "and"?
