An origin story: The Career Roadmap

Last week Almavina Strategic Partners launched our first product – the Virtual Mentor. It is a set of free resources that are anchored in the “Career Roadmap.” But what is the Career Roadmap? I’m glad you asked! A few weeks ago I had lunch with a longtime friend and colleague. Read more…

Feedback

“I have some feedback for you…”

For the final installment of the feedback series, it’s time to address the hardest kind – behavioral feedback. Giving feedback on another person’s actions or behaviors feels SO personal, and can be really difficult to do well. Especially if one generally likes to avoid conflict, it can feel easier to Read more…

Feedback that “does more” (Feedback series, part 3)

Feedback is essential when you are doing something risky. Something brave. Something that challenges you. While receiving feedback in those situations can be scary, the absence of feedback in some ways feels much worse. In the first installment of this series, I wrote  “anything is better than nothing.” This is Read more…

Feedback

The slippery slope of tolerance (Feedback series, part 2)

My writing process is something like this: I think of a topic I feel needs to be discussed, and then I write the subject line/title of the piece before I start writing. Weird? Maybe. I was thinking about this one experience I wanted to share with my readers and came Read more…

The importance of feedback, Part 1

I’ve been thinking a lot about feedback lately. Behavioral feedback in relationships. Feedback on performance in the job search process. Feedback on work products (in all levels of school and at work). Today I’m kicking off a series on the importance of feedback with two (possibly) obvious statements and one Read more…

Why don’t organizations invest in their junior people?

Companies invest in their leadership – executive coaching for new CEOs, fellowships and leadership cohorts for their senior leaders, etc. But how do they invest in their younger employees? What would the workplace look like if every employee had a professional coach? If there were more opportunities for mentorship and Read more…

Important reminders for job-seekers

I have a few friends who are looking for jobs right now. A few of my friends – and from the looks of LinkedIn, about 8 million other people! (*not real data! 😉)  Whether someone is looking for a new job after 10 years of work, 20 years of work, Read more…

Find what works and make it happen

I have a love/hate relationship with Fridays. If I have complete control over my Friday, it’s a great day. I like quiet Fridays, ones that I can use to:  On the very best Fridays, I also go to my favorite yoga class.  When Fridays used to be booked with back Read more…

Five signs your boss might be making you sick

They say your boss has a greater impact on your health than your doctor.  Over the past few months, I’ve been working with “Jane,” a client who is in recovery from her latest work experience. She left voluntarily, but not without some scars. Jane is taking some time to figure Read more…

What could happen when you try something new?

In early February, I ran across an advertisement for the 2024 Women in Publishing Summit. (I honestly can’t even remember where I saw it. Instagram, maybe?) For the previous few months, I had been entertaining the idea of getting started on writing a book. I had begun to read some Read more…
