Hi there, Do you have projects or goals that you keep putting off? Maybe it’s preparing for a marathon, finding a new job, or—like me—writing a book? Let me share a personal story. Twice, I’ve started writing a book and twice, I’ve stalled. But now, I’m on my third attempt, and this time, I’m fully committed to finishing it. So, I’m making a declaration: I’m working on a book for leaders about transforming disengaged, alienated teams into high-performing units. I’m excited to share that every other week, I’ll be updating you on my progress and offering some sneak peeks and tips from my upcoming book. Here’s a glimpse of what’s coming:

Hi Reader, Daria’s here. In 2018 I was looking for a business development manager in Nicaragua, and I approached it just like I did in my home country. Did I succeed? No. What helped me succeed was finding a local partner to help with the search, and learning that when someone said mañana, it didn’t always mean tomorrow. I really needed to ask for the date. Lots of companies I know are planning to hire people in the U.S. Most of them will start where I started, with the search itself. But...
Hi Reader, Connecting people is something I’ve always admired in others and always wanted to learn myself. I’m getting better at it by watching the experts. Timur Novopashin is one of them.
