Welcome to
Meg's Blog

Ever notice how sometimes things aren’t working out as expected?

I’m about to jump into the whole social, privacy, generational divide topic with both feet.

I’m always fascinated with the way that HR labels things

About once a quarter, my husband makes the suggestion I should go into sales.

I have been a bit hard to reach these days. There are a lot of reasons, but none are a reflection of my reduced interest in blogging.

If you focus on leadership and career development for your team, doesn’t this backfire for you as a leader?

I’ve always believed that my job was to make my boss look good (but, not to make his/her life easy 😉 ).

Awhile back, I attended a Bay Area Executives meetup panel moderated by Ray Wang.

Seriously, what are you trying to say? And more importantly, why do I care?

If you have been reading my blog for any length of time, you know I am all about managing your own career.

If you are looking to advance your career, and you have the opportunity to read one book this year, I strongly suggest you pick up Rise.

Had you asked me five years ago to describe myself, I would have told you I am a follow the rules girl. 

Busy has become the rule these days. 

Sadly, I don’t really have a lot of great insights with this post.  I think it’s a personal attempt to gain perspective.

I bet you think you are the only person who has moments of professional panic.

I’ve been a bit behind on my list lately, but yesterday I finally saw the outstanding Matt Ridley TEDtalk called when ideas have sex.

In talking to leading  customers we have found that there is an unexpected wall that many hit when doing a complete succession process.

In talking to people about social media, I often find people feeling stressed that they have nothing to say.

I have been in management long enough to have seen a common story play out several times, it goes something like this. 

Those who work with me know that I give a LOT of feedback.
