Philosophy Changed My Life

The article displayed on this Stanford University website is all about emotions from different philosophical perspectives. I’m very interested in our graphic designer’s opinion of this article (Sherwin’s master’s degree is in Philosophy ;-) I don’t expect [...]

The Emotional Intelligence of Being ‘Here Now’

In The Moment

Have you noticed all the hype about back to school? I was at an office supply store yesterday and kids with their parents were everywhere frantically buying up school supplies. It was a little strange. August doesn’t seem like ‘back-to-school’ month! Well if you watch TV ads you might think it started in July. Why [...]

Bully Free at Work

This month’s book is “Bully Free at Work” (2011) by Valerie Cade. I met Valerie at a presentation she gave at the Strategic Capability Network in Calgary and I really enjoyed her presentation and was very impressed by her and was subsequently compelled to buy her book.

Book Review: Discipline Without Distress

May 24 2011

Once again, I have chosen to review a local Calgary author I met at the Calgary chapter of the Canadian Association of Professional Speakers. Her name is Judy Arnall and her book is entitled, “Discipline Without Distress” (3rd Edition, 2010) and can best be described as an emotionally intelligent parenting book. The subtitle is “135 [...]
