When the pandemic began, many of us assumed working remotely would only be temporary, but as weeks turned into months and months are now turning into years, we now realize that some employees may never come back into the office. Thus, hybrid teams were born. And while this way of working may be different from what many of us are accustomed to, there are ways to create cohesion among a hybrid team.

I recently heard Kelli Harding, MD, speak at a conference where she provided this statistic, "For every one life that is saved by biomedicine, education saves eight." I often find myself thinking back and reflecting on this. When we think beyond the scope of ourselves and invest in sharing our experiences and enriching others, it has a profound impact. This is the power of giving back.

I believe most people want to be their best and most whole selves. Yet, many times, it's our self-limiting beliefs that hold us back and we don’t even realize it! I've seen this play out many times in my years as an executive coach.

Growth is not always linear. There comes a time in our careers when we feel like we've stalled or hit a wall. Especially as an executive, it's often hard to see your own blind spots, and people within your organization don't always feel comfortable sharing opportunities for growth.
