The Great Motivation: Are you doing these 6 things to engage your team in 2022?
It’s the year of the “greats” … the great resignation, the great reset, the great reshuffle, the great reprioritization, the great share, the great mental breakdown. I may have made that last one up. Change is constant, and sometimes it happens faster than we anticipate. Now more than ever, it feels hard to keep up. […]

I Burned Out at 27. Here’s What I Learned.
I’ve always had a strong work ethic. I blame (and thank) my mom for that. On my 15th birthday, she dropped me off at Kroger (a grocery store chain, in case you don’t have them in your neck of the woods) and told me not to call home until I had a job. She had […]
How to Use Personality Type to Avoid Stress Spirals
One of the many cool things about personality assessments is that they are a springboard for any human resource initiative, problem, or interaction. Filling an open position? Assess your top performers to build a job benchmark. Having conflict on a team? Use the Omnia assessment to understand the communication style of the parties involved. Getting […]
Leveraging Personality Type to Build Effective Teams
A coworker of mine, we’ll call her Tonya (because that’s her name) always says, “Teamwork makes the dream work,” a phrase originally coined by John C. Maxwell in his book by the same name. We all expect her to say it any time one member of our team helps out another. Nothing beats that feeling […]
That One Memorable Gift
It’s that big gift. Remember the one, when you were a kid? The one thing that you weren’t expecting, but it made your eyes light up. And you kept playing with it long after the holidays. Maybe for years. It’s the one that pops into your mind when someone asks, “What is the best gift […]
Bringing People Together in a Remote World
Millions of us are still working (and living) at a distance due to COVID-19. We’re heading into another holiday season socially distanced, and it’s having an impact. Even if you’re taking steps to help remote workers prevent burnout, balance working from home with homelife, and avoid Zoom fatigue, it can still be a difficult time […]
How to Earn a Merit Badge in Self-Awareness
If you’re anything like me, you learned a lot about yourself over this past year-plus. Maybe you feel like you’re an expert at self-awareness. We’ve certainly never been given this much time and space for reflection. But we’ve also never (en masse, in recent history) had so much intense and constant change. Maybe we have […]
Camp Omnia
Welcome to Camp Omnia. This month we’re embarking on a learning journey to help improve yourself and your team. You know, just like summer camp ought to be. While there aren’t any ropes courses, trust circles, s’mores, or singing Kumbaya, (though we fully support the team efforts), we have packed this camp with valuable information […]
Refocus on 2021 Goals
There is no failure, only feedback: The only true failure is giving up. This is something I say to my children often. It serves as a reminder that as long as we keep striving toward our goals, we have not failed to achieve them, we are simply still working toward achieving them. It’s just as […]
