7 Business Themes for 2019

February 4, 2019

We hope for courage in leadership, and we continue to seek nobility in management. 10 years ago, I wrote an article for the Honolulu Advertiser (now the Honolulu Star Advertiser) titled, The Top 7 Business Themes on my 2009 Wish List.

The Values that Matter: Yours & Ours

January 1, 2017

One of the things I love most about values, and by extension, my Ho‘ohana working with values-centered management practices via Managing with Aloha, is that they never get old. In that way, the “out with the old, and in with the new” mantra that is often heralded each January doesn’t seem to apply to our […]
