HOW SUCCESSFUL CAREERS ARE MADE

Straight talk from a former Fortune 100 CHRO on promotions, layoffs, bosses, and the realities of work in any industry.

After 30+ years in business, including more than 20 as a Chief HR Officer, I’ve seen how careers actually move forward and how they quietly stall out.

Most people are working hard. Fewer understand how the system really works.

This is where I share what I’ve learned. Promotions, restructurings, leadership decisions, AI, and the things nobody explains until it’s too late.

No corporate jargon. No pretending. Just practical advice from someone who’s been in the room when the decisions get made.

It isn't just Steve's pragmatism and ability to see all situations through the prism of common sense and fairness that make him the first person I consult when I encounter a challenging situation. It's the fact that his motivations as a professional, philanthropist and friend are born out of a genuine sense of goodness and kind intent. You hear a lot of people that claim to be 'selfless' but with Steve it's really never about HIM. He's smart, thoughtful and compassionate and I am one of many who count him among my most trusted colleagues.
