A Human-Centered Leadership Practice That Builds Trust, Reduces Friction, and Makes Every Decision Smarter You’ve done the work. The plan is solid, and you’re ready to roll. And still—before you hit go—it’s worth taking a moment to ask: “How might this land for the people it affects?” Yeah, that pause can feel inconvenient. You might hear things you can’t fully fix.

Make Meaning to Spark Motivation (Without Sounding Like a Walking Mission Statement) You’ve seen it. Maybe you’ve been it—the glazed eyes. The robotic checkbox ticking. The “I’m just here so I don’t get fired” vibe. It’s not burnout. Not boredom. It’s sneakier than that: disconnection from meaning. That’s where the Clarity Habit “ Make Meaning ” swoops in wearing a cape (but like, a practical one with pockets).

In a given neighborhood, just about all the cars are the same. There are few that are pink, orange or purple, for example. There’s nothing inherently wrong with those frequencies of light. Nothing that modern paint technology can’t deliver, nothing that offends the rods and cones of our eyes. It’s because the color of the car we choose tells a story.

This is the way to understand business-to-business selling. After you’ve left with the purchase order, what does the buyer tell the boss? What does the boss tell the investors or the press? This helps decode why giant companies like Google or Facebook buy a company or don’t. It explains why McKinsey can charge 20 times as much for consulting as a former McKinsey consultant can.

Years ago, when I was working as an Executive Assistant, I found a conference designed specifically for administrative professionals and, being a lifelong learner, I was eager to go. Excited, I brought the idea to my Operations Manager, hoping she’d support me in attending. Her response was surprising and deflating. She simply said, “You don’t need that.” It stopped me cold.

Make Data Matter: Four Questions That Turn Info Into Influence You’ve been there. Someone senior asks, “Can you get me the numbers on this?” and you spring into action—spreadsheets flying, dashboards glowing. You deliver all the data and more… and the response? Blank stares. Follow-up questions you weren’t ready for. Maybe even frustration. Here’s the thing: your job isn’t just to share information.

Forgetfulness is costing you time, money, and a ton of missed opportunities. In the age of automation, it’s easy to underestimate the power of a well-trained human mind. But memory isn’t just a parlor trick, it's a strategic edge. Human memory is one of the most underrated business skills. Whether you’re managing people, leading sessions, or having high-stakes conversations, remembering names, details, and concepts can be transformative in building trust, absorbing knowledge, and driving perform

The Beatles changed music. Starbucks changed coffee. Perhaps your project is aiming to reach a large audience. Consultants call it market share. What percentage of the available market have you reached with your idea? No one hits everyone, but many organizations seek to be a monopoly, or perhaps noticeable in scale. This flies in the face of embracing the smallest viable market.

We need to talk about AI. I say ‘need’ rather than ‘want’, because if I’m honest, a big part of me would rather not. I am not an enthusiast for AI. If it were up to me, on balance, I would rather it didn’t exist. But we’re now at the stage where AI is unavoidable. Big changes are approaching fast. And they will be felt particularly keenly in the arts and creative industries.

Grit in our work lives is a good thing — but only up to a point. Sticking to things can offer us the time and space to solve an issue or adjust our attitude.

The new edition updates everything in the handbook for the new version of the Gatsby Benchmarks and various other big changes that have happened in the last few years. Here are David and I toasting the launch of the book.

In the work that I’ve done over the past forty years, I would say that the percentages are even more weighted toward women, maybe on the order of 90% women, 10% men.
