Hello! Trends in client requests emerge quickly and with surprising frequency in my work.

Strengths and positive psychology go hand-in-hand so I have shared a couple of useful articles on these topics below. And, all of the curiosity about strengths got me thinking about the range of assessments available to my clients and when they are most effective. Watch for an upcoming Forbes article from me on this topic. I will be sure to share it in an upcoming newsletter too. Thanks for reading! ~Jill |

The first article in the series is about development discussions which feels timely with hybrid work plans formalizing and many people returning to the office. Check out the link below to read more and watch for the next topic in this series, action learning, later this month. |
