Mark Graban's Newsletter

Hi :

Welcome again to my occasional newsletter and email updates.

I was recently a guest (with host Kirby Sneen) on the Manufacturer's Alliance Podcast, talking about my book Measures of Success: React Less, Lead Better, Improve More.

Check out the episode and Kirby is kindly giving away signed copies of the book. I think there are five copies yet unclaimed and, if you're quick to sign up for his mailing list, you can get a copy (while supplies last!).

Blog Posts, Podcasts, and Webinars

I'm trying to get back into the blogging habit, but I'm still doing a lot of podcasting and I moderated two webinars this past week. Here are some highlights and links from the past few months:

I'm Open to Work — Virtually or On-Site

I'm happy to report that I've been back on site with the healthcare client a lot over the past two months. After 23 months in work-from-home mode, it's great to be back out there.

I'm open to working with you, either virtually or on-site with you. I'm ready and able to travel and I'm fully vaccinated - and boosted - (and willing to wear a mask, without complaint, of course).

I can help as a speaker, a virtual coach, a workshop leader, or a consultant. You can reply to this email or schedule a call to discuss your needs and situation.

Thank You!

Thanks for being part of my community.

Let me know if I can be of assistance in any way.
