High-performing people don’t go it alone.
Athletes, artists, chess masters all rely on coaches—people who see what they can’t.
Leaders in health & social impact are no different.
Coaching isn’t a luxury or weakness. It’s how clarity is built in complexity.
See 2026 with new eyes.

I love this piece -- it shows how we've convinced ourselves that a great meal or evening out is due to the chef. But it's the entire team. The greatest dish in the world cannot survive bad service monocle.com/travel/hospitali…

Good advice doesn’t always come from people close to you. It comes from people who want what's best for you.
When people are trying to influence you or please you, they tend to give biased suggestions.
The most reliable sources of wisdom are people who put your interests first.
