    Leadership, Personal Growth

    We all like to think of ourselves as independent — capable of choosing our mindset, setting our tone, and holding the steering wheel of our own productivity and purpose.

    If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by compliance jargon like ISO 27001, SOC 2, or NIST 800-53, you’re not alone.

    How do you usually start a professional conversation? Maybe it’s a quick “Oh traffic was awful” or a “Busy day hey?” or even a deep sigh as you arrive in the meeting room or log onto a call. These kinds of comments seem harmless. They’re just small talk. A way of settling in. But what…

    The Power of Strategic Caring: Knowing When to Speak and When to Let Go

    Leadership, Personal Growth

    Early in my career, I cared a lot.
