Mindset Monday
We call EQ a "soft skill," but there is nothing soft about it. 🧠
Navigating conflict and building trust are the hardest things a leader does.
Technical skills build the product. EQ builds the team.
It is not a luxury. It is the operating system. 👑
For the old and old school gamers here ... Did you love #EQ #EverQuest, you will adore #BG3 Baldur's Gate.
Just wow. ❤️
I was going to check out Luna Co. Audio's new plugins. They looked promising: an SSL style #EQ, a multi #compressor, + a tape emulator.
Their github is full of #claude #AI commits. These programs are full of #slop and I'm no longer considering installing them, no matter how useful they could be.
Anyway, I'll be sticking with ZL Audio's compressor & EQ: https://zl-audio.github.io/plugins/
They work on #Linux #Mac and #Windows and don't *appear* to be "vibe coded" from what I can tell.
I started my Doctorate last week, which has me reflecting on my ICF coaching journey.
It reminded me of the difference between Saving (fixing it for them) and Serving (helping them fix it).
Leadership requires both tools. Which one are you using today? 💡

Problem solving comes naturally to me. I want to help & fix things.
But I learned that true leadership isn't about having the right answers. It is about asking the right questions.
Don't listen to fix. Listen to empower.
Give your team the space to find their own solutions. 👑

High performers don't burn out from work. They burn out from friction.
If your team is talented but slow, check for drag. Are you adding approval layers or clearing the path?
Your job isn't to be the Gatekeeper. It is to be the Obstacle Remover. 👑

We audit money, but we rarely audit energy.
If you end the week depleted, it is a strategic problem. A drained leader creates a drained team.
Check your calendar for "leaks" - vague meetings and tasks that should be delegated.
Patch one leak next week. You can't give what you don't have. 🔋
