Wisdom Wednesday – Fixing The Exit Interview
I’ve spoken to a number of people recently who were leaving their organization – moving to another organization in a different industry, moving to another organization in the same industry, retiring, and leaving without a choice. The common element for all? Reluctance to do an Exit Interview/not being offered one. This is something I’ve thought […]
Wisdom Wednesday – It’s Not A MidLife (Uhm, 3/4 Life?) Crisis – Its What Happens In Your 50s
@simple_online_system Maybe it IS a midlife crisis. Or maybe somewhere along the way our priorities simply change. I still want to earn money. I still want to be useful. I still have ambitions. I just value TIME a lot more than I used to. And increasingly, I want to find ways of earning that give […]
Wisdom Wednesday – “What If They Don’t Want To Make It Better?”
I’ve had a few times where I’ve instantly changed my view on something after a conversation with someone. One such conversation happened at work quite a few years ago. I was sharing my frustration about how someone wasn’t willing to do something obvious that would be a significant improvement for the organization in multiple ways. […]
Wisdom Wednesday – I Don’t Want To Retire, I Just Want My Time Back

You know that feeling when you hear or say a word over and over so much, it stops having meaning? That’s sort of how I feel about the term “resilience”, especially in a workplace context. (Shea’s got me beat on that – she’s actually the one who hears it more than I do as that’s […]
Wisdom Wednesday – The Gervais Principle
“The Office” TV show as a Dilbert-esque model of how workplaces actually function… So much wisdom… Anyhow, go read the article so I don’t just keep screen capping the whole thing!
Wisdom Wednesday – Oversaving
Many people save for retirement through RRSPs, TFSAs, pensions (if they’re lucky) but Shea recently told me about the concept of “oversaving” where people become so focused on saving that they find it hard to switch to spending those savings as retirement approaches – especially if you’re still in good health and feel like you […]
Wisdom Wednesday – 10 Principles of Change Management
I was *very* fortunate that my first job at Regina Public Library was in an HR role dedicated to change management, organizational culture and staff training. RPL was going into two major changes – a move to a provincewide integrated library system and a large staff reorganization to go with it. The lists may differ […]
