Love is the running towards
There is a better way in professional services. It’s focused on “helping” vs. transacting.

Framing our AI approach: Establishing professional policies
What does a comprehensive yet digestible AI policy look like for a professional services firm? I’m going to continue this article with the same starting statement I will use with all AI articles: I’m still learning. We all are. The question I and our team at WGP have been wrestling with is this: Now that […]
Framing our AI approach: The ethical conundrum
In a dog-eat-dog world, it’s important to know when you are the dog. I’m going to write this one with the starting statement that I think all articles on Artificial Intelligence should begin with: I’m still learning. Much is written about the disruption that is happening right at this moment due to AI and the […]
Wish you were here
Humans are wired to be at the same campfire. We are seeing a lot of consternation in companies these days around the topic of remote work and so-called “back to the office” movements. Remote work among knowledge workers has been a viable topic for decades, but really came into its own when “everybody” in a […]
AI and the emergence of the centaur imperative for professionals everywhere
The future of professional services will be shaped by emerging AI resources. How you perform or procure these services better get in step with the changes.

Revenge of the microeconomist in the real world
We are in a world of opportunity and hurt. Demand is high, spirits (and prices) are up, and supply is constrained. What’s a leader to do?
Your lack of takt is showing!
The faithful delivery of services and product on time is a challenge, maybe it’s time to apply more production-floor common sense to services. Stop me if you’ve heard this story before: An executive hires a consultant to solve a problem. The consulting agreement is for a lot of work–maybe redesigning the way an organization is […]
Don’t forget the sales!
The sales function far too often treated like an impenetrable combination of personalities, voodoo, and tradition. It’s time for that to stop. I have a theory when it comes to sales. It goes something like this: Along the way in their executive development, a lot of really smart people develop a disdain for sales as […]
Systems vs. goals in your search for success
Much is said about whether success is better framed as a goal or as a system…I think it’s both, but at different times. Have you ever had a question posed to you that made you think more than it should have? A team member recently asked me if I was a goal-oriented person. My response […]
