What do you do if your executive skills are not adaptable to a global marketplace?
The ability to operate and communicate effectively in a global environment is mission critical for executive success. To augment these skills, some immediate next steps are: - Improve cultural awareness: Understanding and appreciating cultural differences is where it starts. Educate yourself and be aware of your biases. - Solicit feedback from team members: Consider how to adjust your communication and decision-making styles to align better across regions/countries/languages. - Engage in continuous learning: Stay on top of global trends, geopolitical challenges, and technological advancements to ensure an understanding of the world and implications. - Be Adaptable: Be open to changing strategies based on local conditions, and adapt.

What do you do if your organization lacks a culture of innovation?
To foster a culture of innovation, first, the concept of innovation needs to be clearly defined in your organization. Innovation can include new (and adjacent) product/service development for your revenue-generating external market, and it can also include development of new processes or technologies for internal functions to improve productivity and efficiency. Innovation culture starts “from the top” with Leadership Commitment, encouraging experimentation and establishing a process/support structure for idea generation, evaluation and execution.

How can strategic thinking skills help you anticipate and mitigate risks?
Strategic thinking involves understanding the ultimate goal/objective, analysis of the competitive environment, and development of an execution plan to achieve the goals. It operates within a framework that considers both long-term and short-term perspectives enabling teams to anticipate risks, challenges and opportunities.

Children
I work with the Executive Director and Board on Strategic Planning and Fundraising. We advance gender equality in marginalized communities by teaching photography to girls who, in turn, teach photography to boys. Girls build self-confidence & leadership skills while boys recognize the leadership ability of girls & see them as equals. Gender equality is more than a “girls only” effort. It can only be achieved when both girls & boys understand the importance of living as equals.
