The Season of Transformation: Embracing Change in Digital Leadership

The Season of Transformation: Embracing Change in Digital Leadership

Did you know fall is my favorite season? I’m not sure if it’s the refreshing change from Atlanta’s extreme heat to crisp, brisk mornings, the anticipation of the holiday season, or simply the excitement of transformation that the season represents. Perhaps it’s all of the above—especially since I’m a fall baby myself! Change has always thrilled me, and transformation is something I eagerly embrace.

What are you looking forward to embracing this fall? What have you planted with your teams, within your organizations, or even within yourself that you're excited to harvest or share? As we move into this final quarter of the year, it's a wonderful time to reflect on all we've accomplished and look ahead with excitement.

Personally, there are so many things I’m excited about as we wrap up the year. Most importantly, I’m deeply grateful for the time to reflect on our journey and the opportunities we’ve created. Stay tuned for some incredible partnerships, discussions, and opportunities as the fruits of what I’ve planted all year long start to unfold!

Major takeaways this season:

  • Cherish each moment and the people you love.
  • Learn from and value your mistakes—they are always opportunities for growth.
  • Remember your "why"—when your purpose is clear, the path will reveal itself.
  • Find joy in everything you do.

The world is moving rapidly toward digital, and I ask: Are you a part of that transformation? Let’s talk about it! Whether you’re looking to become a certified project manager, or you want to deepen your knowledge of project management, I’m thrilled to announce my partnership with Institute of Project Management this month! Through this partnership, we are offering top-tier project management courses designed to help you excel in the digital age.
