# 3G Action > From Ideas to Action to Results ## Posts - [The finish line is not the only place success happens.](https://3gaction.com/the-finish-line-is-not-the-only-place-success-happens/): Today I am starting a new series. Over the next four Saturdays, we are going to explore a topic that I believe most of us have been thinking about all wrong. The series is called How to Measure Success. Each week we will look at a different area of life, fitness, money, relationships, and business, and ask a question that sounds simple but goes surprisingly deep: How do you actually know when you are winning? We will start today with Success in Financial Goals. And I want to begin with a confession. The Promise I Made at Dinner Cast your mind back to... - [How to Become a Leader People Want to Follow](https://3gaction.com/how-to-become-a-leader-people-want-to-follow/): I hope you’re having a great week.

We looked at the five Ps behind that tension and talked about alignment as the way through it. Today, we move to Part Two of the series, Your 360 degree interaction points. The Lesson I Almost Learned Too Late When I made that move from KPMG into a client organization as a full time employee, one of the biggest surprises was not the tension I talked... - [What A Difficult Career Move Taught Me About Leading People](https://3gaction.com/what-a-difficult-career-move-taught-me-about-leading-people/): This month, I am starting a brand new four part series called Full Spectrum Leader.

A Move That Did Not Go The Way I Planned Some years ago, I made a big decision to leave KPMG and join a company as a full time staff member. I was excited, because the company I was joining was actually a client I had worked... - [What separates being good at your job from being known for it](https://3gaction.com/what-separates-being-good-at-your-job-from-being-known-for-it/): Over the past two Saturdays, we have been building something important together. We started with the Coach, who helps you think better and see your blind spots. Then we moved to the Mentor, who shares their journey so you do not have to learn everything the hard way. If you missed either of those, I recommend you going back to read them before continuing. They set the foundation for what we are covering today. Now we arrive at the third member of your Career Board of Directors. And out of all three, this one may carry the most weight. The Sponsor.

That is exactly where we are starting today. Because what I am about to share genuinely changed how you should think about career growth, not just getting better at what you do, but building the right support around you so that your growth is seen, recognized, and rewarded. Here is the honest truth that most people learn too late: Hard work alone does not guarantee career advancement. Performance matters, yes. But progression? Progression often depends on who is in your corner.... - [Why Being the "Quiet Achiever" is Riskier Than You Think](https://3gaction.com/why-being-the-quiet-achiever-is-riskier-than-you-think/): I hope you’ve had a week filled with tangible results. Last week, we talked about how your appearance sends a signal to the world about your readiness to lead. This week, we move to the second A in the, The Five A’s of Visibility, and it is one that many hardworking professionals quietly struggle with: Achievements. THE MYTH: Good Work Does Not Always Speak for Itself Here is something that might surprise you.

They will see your effort, recognise your results, and reward you... - [Building Relationships Without Losing Authority](https://3gaction.com/building-relationships-without-losing-authority-2/): As we navigate through our careers and businesses, one truth remains constant: relationships form the bedrock of our success. Without knowing how to build meaningful connections with colleagues, associates, and clients, even the most talented among us will find our progress limited. Today, I would like to share my personal journey of relationship-building, complete with its triumphs and stumbles. Big Win In 2009, while working at KPMG, I received my first opportunity to lead a team of consultants on a substantial government project. This was a significant milestone in my career, suddenly, I had four team members looking to me for... - [The Clarity Code: How to Think Clearly and Achieve Your Goals as a Leader](https://3gaction.com/the-clarity-code-clarity-in-leadership/): Today marks the beginning of something I’ve wanted to share for a long time. Welcome to The Clarity Code. A series about one of the most powerful (yet overlooked) leadership skills: the ability to think clearly. We often talk about vision and strategy in boardrooms. But there is a deeper foundation that makes both possible: Clarity in leadership is essential for effective decision-making. Clarity. What Is Clarity in Leadership?

This new series is called The Clarity Code, and it is all about one of the most powerful and most overlooked tools available to any leader: the ability to think clearly. We talk a lot about “vision” and “strategy” in meeting rooms and boardrooms. But there is a quiet foundation that makes both of those things possible. That foundation is clarity. So what exactly is clarity? I like to define it as a thought, idea, or goal that is completely free of confusion and complexity.... - [Why People Skills Outrank Technical Talent](https://3gaction.com/why-people-skills-outrank-technical-talent/): How self-awareness and conflict resolution build indispensable leaders Today marks the finale of our Peak Performance Systems series. We’ve mastered Technical Skills, Personal Effectiveness, and Strategic Communication. Today, we land the plane with the foundation of long-term success: People Skills. While “Leadership” is about strategy and goals, People Skills are about the human element. It’s the art of understanding, connecting, and making others feel heard. 1. The Power of Self-Awareness in Leadership Early in my career, I had a “blind spot” that was sabotaging my influence: sarcasm. I thought I was being witty; my team felt mocked. Self-awareness is the greatest... - [Mastering Leadership Communication Skills for Peak Performance](https://3gaction.com/mastering-leadership-communication-skills-for-peak-performance/): The essence of effective communication in leadership I’m glad you’re joining us in the Peak Performance Systems series. Today, we dive into one of my favorite (and most misunderstood) topics: effective communication for leaders. I used to think I was great at communication. I spoke confidently, wrote clearly, and shared ideas effortlessly. But I was only handling half the equation. I wasn’t truly listening. I focused so much on output that I missed the input from others. Here’s the key insight: Exceptional leadership communication isn’t just broadcasting ideas. It’s a two-way process: absorbing input, processing it thoughtfully, and delivering clear, impactful... - [Corporate Presentations: Common Mistakes and What You Should Know](https://3gaction.com/corporate-presentations-common-mistakes-and-what-you-should-know/): Welcome to a brand-new month filled with fresh opportunities, growth, and new beginnings.

Last Saturday, we explored why public speaking matters so much for every leader. We discovered that there are two types of leaders, those who are skilled at their work but cannot speak effectively about it, and those who are skilled AND can speak powerfully about what they do. Today, we are diving into part 2 – Find Your Authentic Voice. Because here is what nobody tells you, you can actually lose yourself while trying to find your voice. To help you understand this better, I want to share a personal... - [One Skill That Separates Good Leaders From Great Ones](https://3gaction.com/one-skill-that-separates-good-leaders-from-great-ones/): This month, we are exploring something that can transform your career, your relationships, and your ability to make a difference in the world: From Silence to Significance – a series on how to improve your public speaking skills.

I do not get on stages or give big presentations.” Let me share something important with you, public speaking is not just about standing on a stage with a microphone. Public speaking simply means speaking in public rather than in private. Essentially, any time you have a one-to-many speaking opportunity, whether that... - [How to Manage High-Performing Teams Without Causing Employee Burnout](https://3gaction.com/how-to-manage-high-performing-teams-without-causing-employee-burnout/): Today, we reach the final destination in our “The I in Team” journey together.

Do you remember how we have been learning that success is not just about reaching the finish line? We have discovered that the journey matters just as much as the destination.

You know, when we reach the middle of the year, it... - [How to Save Your Business When Clients Pull Out Suddenly](https://3gaction.com/how-to-save-your-business-when-clients-pull-out-suddenly/): Today I want to talk about leading a business, something that might sound scary but is actually something many of us do every day. A business is any project or venture designed to reach specific goals, especially making money. This could be your own company, a department you manage at work, or even a side project you are working on. Leading a business means guiding it through good times and bad times to reach success. My Experience Leading a Business It is January 2020, and I am walking out of my comfortable office at Deloitte for the last time. My heart is beating... - [How to Lead Across Teams Without Being in Charge](https://3gaction.com/how-to-lead-across-teams-without-being-in-charge/):  I have something special to share with you about one of the most important skills you can develop – Leading a team. Leading a team You can lead teams in many different places, at your job, in your church, or in your neighborhood group. The beautiful thing about leadership is that the same good habits work everywhere. Sometimes you will lead volunteers who choose to help because they want to, not because they have to. Leading volunteers can be harder because you cannot tell them what to do like a boss would. Instead, you have to inspire them and make them want to... - [How to Win Support by Leading with Empathy and Heart](https://3gaction.com/how-to-win-support-by-leading-with-empathy-and-heart/): I want to talk about something special – Leading Family, how we can be leaders right in our own homes.

But here is something amazing leadership can happen anywhere, even at home with your family. Leadership is really about having good influence on people around you. This means everyone in your family can be a leader in some way. It does not matter if you are the mom, dad, big brother, little sister, or even the youngest child.

Start With This First](https://3gaction.com/want-to-be-a-great-leader-start-with-this-first/): ​Today, I want to welcome you to a very special series that I believe will change how you see yourself and your future. We are starting a journey together about Leading Self and trust me, this is going to be one of the most important things you will ever learn. What is leadership really? John Maxwell, one of the greatest teachers on leadership, says something very simple but powerful: “Leadership is influence, nothing more, nothing less.” Think about that for a moment.

This barrier is called Mistake: The Fear of Failure. What Is The Fear of Failure? The Fear of Failure happens when we become so scared of making mistakes that we stop trying new things altogether. One bad experience makes us believe we will always fail, so we avoid taking chances that could help us grow. This barrier is dangerous because it keeps us stuck in our comfort zone. We miss out on amazing opportunities because we are too... - [The Team I Almost Destroyed With My Perfectionism](https://3gaction.com/the-team-i-almost-destroyed-with-my-perfectionism/): Today I will be talking about another one out of the seven barriers to growth as I shared in my newsletter to you on April 26. This is called The Impossible Standard. As I shared in our April newsletter, growth rarely happens by chance. It requires identifying and breaking through the invisible barriers that hold us back. Many people struggle with this particular barrier without even knowing it. What Is The Impossible Standard? The Impossible Standard happens when we expect ourselves to be perfect right from the start. We want everything we do to be flawless on the first try. We forget that... - [Why Your 'Someday' Never Comes](https://3gaction.com/why-your-someday-never-comes/): Today, we will look closely at the third barrier: Time the perpetual postponement. My Personal Story: The MBA I Almost Never Started Let me share something from my own life that might sound familiar to you. After I moved from being a pharmacist to working as a management consultant, I quickly saw that I needed more training to do my job well. While KPMG gave me some good training programs, I wanted to learn even more because I thought it would help me feel sure of myself at work. An MBA seemed like the perfect answer. But when I looked at my... - [Stop Collecting Information, Start Creating Results](https://3gaction.com/stop-collecting-information-start-creating-results/): As I shared in my newsletter on April 26, growth rarely happens by accident. Like a garden that needs tending, our personal and professional development requires intentional care. These seven barriers often work silently in the background, stopping our progress without us even noticing. Last week, we talked about the Assumption Barrier. This week, I want to share something equally important but often overlooked: The Knowledge Paradox. Knowledge: The Paradox of Information Have you ever noticed how some people keep learning and learning but never seem to move forward? Or maybe you have done this yourself? I know I have!

This first letter is all about something tricky called “assumption barriers.” What Are Assumption Barriers? Assumptions are things we believe to be true without checking if they really are true. They are like invisible walls that block our path forward. We cannot see them, but they stop us from moving ahead. When we assume things will just work out on their own, we do not take the steps needed to make real progress. This is very dangerous because time keeps passing, but we might not... - [7 Growth Barriers I've Seen Over 20 Years](https://3gaction.com/7-growth-barriers-ive-seen-over-20-years/): Today, I want to share insights gleaned from two decades of working with professionals across various fields, seven specific barriers that might be silently hindering your growth potential.

As Newton demonstrated in his... - [How I Discovered I'm Five People Away from Royalty](https://3gaction.com/how-i-discovered-im-five-people-away-from-royalty/): Today, I am excited to share some thoughts about what might be your most valuable career asset: your relationships. The Six Degrees of Separation Have you ever heard of the “six degrees of separation” theory? It suggests that any person on our planet is connected to any other person through a chain of no more than six social connections. This concept has fascinated researchers for decades, and I recently discovered its truth in my own life when I found out I was only five people away from the British royal family! What is even more remarkable is that with technology and social media... - [Your Sound Mind Needs a Sound Body](https://3gaction.com/your-sound-mind-needs-a-sound-body/): Last month, I shared my experience with the ups and downs of exercise in “Sometimes You Win and Sometimes You Lose.” Today, I want to expand on that theme by emphasizing one of the most valuable assets you possess in your career or business journey: a sound mind housed in a sound body.

Since those early days, I have ventured into four distinct businesses, each offering its own victories and valuable lessons. Allow me to share two experiences from opposite ends of the spectrum. Big Win In 2001, a fortuitous introduction from a friend changed my business trajectory completely.

I understand because I have been there. Like many of us, I used to treat goal-setting as a one-time event, similar to making a wish and throwing a coin into a fountain. The act of writing them down felt like such an achievement that I thought my work was done. “Why revisit them?” I would think to myself. “The hard part is over, right?” Wrong. So wonderfully wrong. Mindset Change ​I discovered a profound truth, writing down goals is not the destination,... - [From Solo Dreams to Shared Success](https://3gaction.com/from-solo-dreams-to-shared-success/): Let me share a personal revelation that transformed my approach to achieving goals. For years, I was like a treasure keeper, holding my dreams and aspirations close to my chest. The thought of sharing them? It felt like walking onto a stage naked. I worried that speaking about my goals would come across as bragging, or worse, set me up for public failure if things did not work out as planned. Despite my careful guarding of these personal ambitions, something was not clicking. My goals remained distant stars, beautiful to look at but seemingly unreachable. Mindset Change ​Then came a particularly inspiring conversation, I... - [The Secret Weapon Against Burnout](https://3gaction.com/the-secret-weapon-against-burnout/): I would be sharing a personal story that might sound familiar to you. Early in my marriage, I was trapped in a soul-crushing cycle. Every evening, I would drag myself home from work, collapse on the sofa, and mindlessly watch television. My wife would gently wake me up and guide me to bed, night after night. I was constantly exhausted, and my relationship was suffering because I had nothing left to give. Sound familiar? you are probably nodding right now. Mindset Change ​The turning point came when I discovered a game-changing concept: understanding energizers and drainers. These are the activities and experiences that either... - [The Missing Hours in Your Day](https://3gaction.com/the-missing-hours-in-your-day/): In the heart of life’s beautiful chaos, I found myself in a familiar struggle that perhaps resonates with you, the eternal battle with time. I have a loving family with two energetic children, a demanding career, a growing side business, and various volunteer commitments all vying for attention. My health and fitness goals? They seemed like distant dreams floating in the periphery of my packed schedule. Does this sound familiar? The Moment My Mindset Changed….. Then one day, a simple yet profound statement stopped me in my tracks: “You will always find time for whatever you consider important.” These words pierced through my... - [The success story behind my unsuccessful goals](https://3gaction.com/the-success-story-behind-my-unsuccessful-goals/): I trust the new year has started on a promising note for you. As we begin this year’s journey together with our first newsletter, I want to share a personal story that changed my perspective on goal-setting and growth. For three consecutive years, I wrote down what seemed like a straightforward goal: take my family on a memorable vacation. It was not a complicated dream, yet it felt out of reach. The first year came and went, no vacation. The second year passed, still no vacation. However, something remarkable was happening beneath the surface that I did not fully appreciate at the... - [Tired of just scrolling? Here's what sharing taught me](https://3gaction.com/tired-of-just-scrolling-heres-what-sharing-taught-me/): I want to share a story about overcoming self-doubt and finding my voice. For the longest time, I was that person who quietly scrolled through LinkedIn, absorbing incredible content from others. Some posts lit me up with inspiration, while others… well, they made me shrink into myself, feeling somehow “less than.” You know that feeling when you see someone’s brilliant post and think, “I could never write like that” or “Who would want to hear what I have to say?” I lived in that space of comparison for far too long. But here is what changed everything: After my birthday a few... - [The long road home](https://3gaction.com/the-long-road-home/): This week, I want to share a deeply personal story, one that has shaped me and reminded me of the power of perseverance and gratitude. Have you ever held onto a dream so tightly that even setbacks felt like stepping stones? Let me share a story about turning impossible into inevitable. Eight years ago, a dream took root in our hearts. Becoming Canadian was not just about a new passport; it was about building a future where our aspirations could flourish. But dreams rarely unfold in straight lines, do they? 2014: Our first application to immigrate to Canada was denied due to... - [The Fulfilment Formula](https://3gaction.com/the-fulfilment-formula/): Let me share a moment of unexpected discovery that completely transformed my journey. Today, as I reflect on life’s precious gifts, my mind wandered to a journey that started in a pharmacy, of all places. There I was, a pharmacist, surrounded by medicine bottles and prescriptions, when life whispered a different path into existence. That whisper led me through the halls of global giants like KPMG and Deloitte, where I discovered my natural affinity for management consulting. The work sang to my strengths, yet something felt missing, a void that only my first love, healthcare, could fill. Then came the moment... - [Behind Every Number is a Story - Including Yours](https://3gaction.com/behind-every-number-is-a-story-including-yours/): As I sit here reflecting on life’s blessings this morning, a realization washed over me that left me absolutely speechless. Our community, this vibrant tapestry of human connection has grown to 12,500 beautiful souls. But here is what truly stopped me in my tracks… Let me share something that fills my heart with immense gratitude… Each number in that 12,500 is not just a statistic. It is a beating heart. A dreamer. A fighter. A story waiting to be told. Let me paint you a picture of what I see when I look at our community: I see the power of shared experiences, where one person’s insight becomes another’s breakthrough moment. Our community... - [What nobody tells you about moving up](https://3gaction.com/what-nobody-tells-you-about-moving-up/): Let me share something that took me over a decade of managing teams to fully understand, a revelation that might just transform how you view your career journey. Picture a building with three distinct floors. Each floor requires a different key to access it. Fascinating thing? The key that opened one floor won’t necessarily work for the next. This is exactly how career progression works, and I learned this lesson the hard way. Early in my career, I watched brilliant colleagues hit invisible walls. These were people who could code like wizards or crunch numbers in their sleep. They were passionate, skilled, and consistently delivered great work. Yet something... - [The 30-Second interaction that restored my perspective](https://3gaction.com/the-30-second-interaction-that-restored-my-perspective/): I wanted to share something special that happened during my school run sometime ago… Have you ever felt like your efforts are just disappearing into the void? Like you are shouting into an empty room, wondering if anyone is listening? Well, my story might change how you see your impact. A while ago in my daughter’s school, during a routine school drop-off, a fellow parent rolled down his window with something more than just a casual greeting. “Your LinkedIn posts are very inspiring,” he shouted, his enthusiasm cutting through the morning’s typical background noise. But he did not stop there. He shared how he had been following my LinkedIn content for months. “These posts have been my silent career mentor,”... - [My career is not what I planned, but everything I needed](https://3gaction.com/my-career-is-not-what-i-planned-but-everything-i-needed/): You know those days when you’re reflecting on your career journey, wondering if you’re on the right path? Well, this week’s “Take Action” is specially crafted for you, and trust me, it might just change how you view your professional journey. I’ve been sitting on this story for a while, waiting for the perfect moment to share it. After countless messages from community members asking about career transitions and dealing with uncertainty, I realized, that moment is now. What I’m about to share isn’t your typical “follow these steps to success” story. Instead, it’s a real, unfiltered look at how embracing... - [The leadership muscle you have not been training (But should)](https://3gaction.com/the-leadership-muscle-you-have-not-been-training-but-should/): You know those days when you’re reflecting on your career journey, wondering if you’re on the right path? Well, this week’s “Take Action” is specially crafted for you, and trust me, it might just change how you view your professional journey. I’ve been sitting on this story for a while, waiting for the perfect moment to share it. After countless messages from community members asking about career transitions and dealing with uncertainty, I realized, that moment is now. What I’m about to share isn’t your typical “follow these steps to success” story. Instead, it’s a real, unfiltered look at how embracing... - [The most powerful email he never sent](https://3gaction.com/the-most-powerful-email-he-never-sent/): I wanted to share an interesting story with you.Sometimes, revenge feels right but if it costs you everything? Brian stared at his laptop screen, his cursor hovering over the “Send” button. It was 11:47 PM, and he had just finished writing a strongly worded email to his colleague, James. James had taken credit for Brian’s project during the team meeting earlier that day, and the frustration had been simmering inside him all evening. The email was perfect and eloquently crafted with just the right amount of controlled anger. It would definitely put James in his place. His finger twitched over the... - [Cracking The Boss Code](https://3gaction.com/cracking-the-boss-code/): Let me ask you something, how well do you know your boss? I don’t mean knowing their coffee order or where they went for vacation. I mean really understanding how they think, what they care about, and what makes them tick.Here’s a funny thing, most of us spend years working under a manager, thinking we’ve just got to survive the boss-battle until we get to the next level. But what if I told you there’s a better way? A way that could fast-track your career without having to cross your fingers and hope for the best? Let me paint you a picture:... - [Are You Speaking Different Languages at Work? Find Out!](https://3gaction.com/are-you-speaking-different-languages-at-work-find-out/): Let me quickly share a story with you about Justin. Just like many of us, he was trying his best at work. Every Monday, he would show up to his one-on-one meeting with his manager, Smith, super prepared. He had this detailed report ready to go, eager to share his progress. But here’s the thing, Smith? He would be sitting there, scrolling through his emails, barely paying attention. Talk about frustrating, right? I mean, we’ve all been there, putting in the effort only to feel ignored. And it didn’t stop there. Justin would get these “urgent” messages from Smith late in... - [Don't Stop Fishing!](https://3gaction.com/dont-stop-fishing/): A friend of mine recently started working at the Associate Vice President level in one of the top 5 Canadian banks. He had been trying to move past the Director level in his previous company for about 2 years. Every time performance reviews came around his former company would give the excuse that he was not yet ‘fully ready’ or there was no role that was a ‘good fit’ for him. Around this time, we got talking and I was able to help confirm what he already suspected that “it’s okay to look for your next career level outside your current... - [Remember to Say 'Thank You'](https://3gaction.com/remember-to-say-thank-you/): A parent in my daughter’s school shouted to me from his car “Your LinkedIn Posts are very inspiring, Thank you!” He had been reading my posts on LinkedIn for a while and he wanted to let me know he was finding them helpful along his career journey. I smiled and thanked him for the kind words – also shouting from my car As we finished our ‘drive-by conversation’ he said to me that “when I’m ready to make a career move, I’ll reach out to you”. What he didn’t know was that earlier that morning, I was not feeling motivated about... - [Mbappe is now French Captain](https://3gaction.com/mbappe-is-now-french-captain/): Mbappe was recently made captain of the French national team and Antoine Griezmann was not so happy about it. Griezmann has been waiting for many years to be the next captain but earlier this week Mbappe was named captain instead of Griezmann. But who wouldn’t want Mbappe to be captain? A player who scored a hatrick (3 goals) at the 2022 world cup finals. One who effectively combines speed and skill – a nightmare combo for defenders. I like watching Mbappe play. I also like playing him on FIFA (PS5) – who doesn’t!? 🙂. It’ll be hard for anyone to fault... - [Give Value to Get Value](https://3gaction.com/give-value-to-get-value/): A friend of mine was asked to pay $100 before she could view the prices of wedding gowns on a website! She is getting married soon so she wanted to get an estimate to plan with. She got to this website and they asked her to pay before she could see how much the gowns cost!!🤯 🤯 When I heard it, I couldn’t believe that a business would be asking a potential customer to pay money (value) without adding value to them first. The best way to get value is by first adding value to others – genuinely adding value to... - [Working Remote but still Building Connections](https://3gaction.com/working-remote-but-still-building-connections/): “Building connections while working remotely is hard!’ A friend of mine said this to me because he was finding it hard to build the kind of connections that would help advance his career. I shared with him how I was still able to build connections by being more intentional about it. Back when everyone worked in the office, connections grew organically as we had informal chats in the elevator, met at the water cooler or had lunch together. Today, because many of us work hybrid or remotely, the connections will be built for the most part, when we’re intentional about it.... - [Don't Forget to Celebrate](https://3gaction.com/dont-forget-to-celebrate/): I took myself to dinner last night! Just me, myself and I! This is something I haven’t done in so many years! I guess the busyness of life had made me forget how refreshing it can be. About 17 years ago when I was designing and selling shirts, I would usually celebrate a large sale with a feast at any of my favourite restaurants. I would order everything my heart desired and eat to the point of almost passing out! 😁 😁 You see, I was applying a lesson I had learnt, which is to celebrate my wins. But somehow along... - [When I Struggled with my Goals](https://3gaction.com/when-i-struggled-with-my-goals/): I had a goal for carbs to be less than 25% of my daily food portions this year. At the end of Q1, my average was in the range of 60%. This was more than double my desired goal – not good! A result like this is enough to make me feel discouraged and give up on this goal altogether. However, two things are keeping me going: – In the same period this year, I have achieved my exercise goals – yay! – My current carb consumption is lower than what it was this time last year If I allow the... - [My Career Did not Go According to Plan](https://3gaction.com/my-career-did-not-go-according-to-plan/): My career has not gone according to ‘Plan’. I studied pharmacy in school, started my career as a management consultant, worked as an HR leader and today I work within the growth organization of a fantastic health tech company. In retrospect some might think I planned things to turn out exactly the way they did, but if I said so I’ll be lying. So you see things have not gone according to plan but I can tell you that my career journey has been a fulfilling one. I’ve learnt that the ultimate benefit of a plan is not for things to go... - [Right Word at the Wrong Time!](https://3gaction.com/right-word-at-the-wrong-time/): I lost my 4 wisdom teeth in one day! For the 6 years prior to this time, I thought my dental health was in top shape. So I was shocked when the dentist said they’d had to schedule me with a surgeon to remove all 4 teeth. It was the first time I’ll be going under general anesthesia so it felt was a rare moment for me. They shared some final details with me and I was gone. The procedure was successful and while I was in the post op room, the nurse started explaining my post-op care for when I... - [You are Getting Better!](https://3gaction.com/you-are-getting-better/): A friend of mine was laid off in the early days of his career. This really affected his confidence not just at work but in other areas of life. So, he tried to boost his confidence by getting many certifications. But these did not help him overcome the self-doubt that the lay off had created in him. It had made him believe there was a ‘glass ceiling’ limiting his career. Not too long ago, we both got talking and by sharing about my own journey, I was able to help him overcome this self-doubt. I helped him see how he had... - [Dealing with Imposter Syndrome – My Personal Story (4As)](https://3gaction.com/dealing-with-imposter-syndrome-my-personal-story-4as/): While working with leaders across different geographies and industries, one of the concerns many leaders raise to me relates to a feeling they have of not being adequate or qualified for the role or responsibility assigned to them. Some describe it as being ‘nervous’ others say ‘intimidated’ or just not being ‘confident enough’. Maybe a more recent description of this feeling is ‘Imposter Syndrome’. Imposter syndrome can simply be defined as ‘not feeling qualified or good enough for whatever role or responsibility that has come your way” I have personally had to deal with ‘imposter syndrome’ at different stages in my... - [Five Os for Leading Effective Meetings](https://3gaction.com/five-os-for-leading-effective-meetings/): Have you ever been part of a meeting where mid-way into the meeting you or someone else just blurted out “I am not clear on the objective of this meeting, why are we meeting?” Or have you left a meeting more confused than before you came to the meeting? I am sure you can think of at least one meeting in the last 2-4 weeks which did not add any value to you. This is why I wanted to share some ways you can lead more effective meetings, so people who come to your meeting leave with a sense of clarity... - [How to Know if You’re a Leader](https://3gaction.com/how-to-know-if-youre-a-leader/): Welcome again to 3-2-1 Take Action, where we share 3 thoughts on Leadership, 2 leadership tips, and 1 action point to help you take your leadership to the next level!

Before we look at the 3 thoughts for today, it’s important to lay this foundation: Before you can effectively lead anybody else, you will need to lead yourself first – this is what it means to lead from the inside, out. The 3 thoughts for today are embedded in a quote from John Maxwell: A leader knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way A leader knows the way This... - [Are Leaders Born or Made?](https://3gaction.com/are-leaders-born-or-made/): Welcome again to 3-2-1 Take Action, where we share 3 thoughts on Leadership, 2 tips and 1 action point to help you take your leadership to the next level! Here are the 3 thoughts for today, they come in form of questions: Are leaders born or are they made?  Can everyone become a leader? Will everyone become a leader? Are Leader Born or Are They Made? It is very likely you would have heard a version of this question before. I love the way John Maxwell answered this question. He said, “I’ve never met anyone who wasn’t born”. I hope you... - [What You Need to Know to Lead Others](https://3gaction.com/what-you-need-to-know-to-lead-others/): Welcome again to 3-2-1 Take Action, where we share 3 thoughts on leadership, 2 tips and 1 action point to help you take your leadership to the next level! nBefore we get into the 3 thoughts for today with you, it’s important to mention that for leadership to be effective, you need what is called a leadership base. A leadership base is what gives you a basis for influencing other people effectively. Do you know your leadership base(s)? While there are many leadership bases out there, we’ll be looking at 3 here, each of them starting with the letter ‘C’ to... - [Are you 5 star?](https://3gaction.com/are-you-5-star/): Prior to COVID, I would not describe myself as an active online shopper. I am more of your ‘touch and feel buyer’. However, when COVID hit the world, and the lockdowns were in place, I, like many other people, had to find my way around the vast world of online shopping. Quickly I realized that I would have one big problem — how do I select from the myriad of options? Immediately, I learned the usefulness of the ratings and realized that the closer to a 5-star rating, the higher the likelihood of the product being the right level of quality.... - [How to Use Your Unique Value Proposition (UVP) to Accelerate Your Career](https://3gaction.com/how-to-use-your-unique-value-proposition-uvp-to-accelerate-your-career/): If you are a fan of movies, you have probably seen J. Edgar, a 2011 movie where Leonardo DiCaprio plays the role of J. Edgar Hoover, a powerful leader of the FBI. J. Edgar Hoover was primarily responsible for building the first national database of fingerprints, which turned out to be a major breakthrough in crime detection at the time. While I do not agree with some of J. Edgar’s techniques and tactics, I think it’s fascinating to know that the success of the fingerprint database was premised on one major fact: no two people have the same fingerprint. To further... - [Accelerate Your Career Through Purpose](https://3gaction.com/accelerate-your-career-through-purpose/): Have you ever felt the proverbial ‘imposter syndrome’? A feeling that one day people around you may discover that you don’t know as much as they expect you should know or that you cannot do the things they expect you to do? Do you sometimes have doubts about your current job or professional line? Wondering: “Is this really the right job for me?” Can you say with all certainty that you are on the right career path and you will be happy and fulfilled retiring in this career path?
