Sunday Mālama: Are your projects and your ideas in sync?

January 20, 2019

Sense of Place: It’s January, the month of resolutions, goal-setting, and life’s way finding. In a recent newsletter, I shared this with the Ho‘ohana Community; Two Choices: The Change I Choose. If there’s anything I’ve learned from my own experiences with making New Year’s resolutions, it’s this: a) Make as few of them as possible, […]

Video Review: Tina Roth Eisenberg “Trust Breeds Magic”

May 6, 2016

I promised myself I would watch more videos that are of the TED Talks variety — storytelling ones which are more biographical in nature, and about small ideas which became big deals for people.

April 25, 2016

We talked about productivity hacking last time. What managers who adopt Managing with Aloha basically do, is behavior hacking: We hack to gain Aloha-informed behaviors.

Values or Virtues? Both!

December 24, 2014

The question of “values or virtues” has a single answer for me: Both, please. Whether taken separately or enjoyed together, values and virtues compose a healthy helping of goodness, and I love revisiting one of our Managing with Aloha traditions at this time of year, our Twelve Aloha Virtues. They are Hope, Freedom, Humor, Prayer, […]

Piloting Projects: Job One is You

December 19, 2014

Do you know who Roz Savage is? For those who don’t, Roz is the first woman to have rowed solo across three oceans – the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian. Solo. And you know how that came to be? She knew she needed a project, and so she chose one. Roz Savage was a management consultant […]
