Are you having crucial conversations?
Reading Crucial Conversations (by Kerry Patterson, Joseph Grenny, Ron McMillan, and Al Switzler) influenced my thinking around how to have productive, healthy conversations, especially when emotions are running high and high-stakes conversations are involved.
As a leadership coach, my clients talk about their struggles trying to manage difficult conversations all the time. Are you having these
tough conversations, or are you avoiding them? Do you know you can actually strengthen relationships through these crucial conversations? And yes, they are worth having.
There are skills and techniques to help you master these conversations and my colleague, Bruce McLeod,(GM of Coaching Services at Vision Coaching) does a great job of bringing some of these concepts to light in a recent Boiling Point Podcast, Tell Them They Have Broccoli in Their Teeth, where he works to change our minds about difficult conversations.

Saint John Magic and the Pink Truck
From my interview with Dominique Leger,
published July
2018 in the Saint John Telegraph-Journal.
The
big pink truck showed up in Saint John in 2013 with owner,
Dominque Leger, at the wheel. One of the freshest ideas to hit the east coast retail industry, the
In Pursuit Mobile Boutique garners a lot of attention and has a huge following.
If anyone can make a retail venture successful, it's Dominique - Saint John's #mobilepreneur!

3 New Partners On Board
Dominos, Aquila Tours and Town Health Solutions are the most recent partners to join the Million Dollar Pledge - where each partner pledges $10K per year for 10 years, to help children in our community. With 10 partners, that's a total of a million dollars! We now have 12 Partners. How great is that?
Pledge partners get together, and with the counsel of United Way's investment advisors, decide how best to invest. Over time, partners monitor and manage their pledge portfolio for the greatest return on community impact. So far, we've had great results -
