According to the Urban Dictionary, the phrase "Keep your stick on the ice" has two meanings: "First, be ready for anything. Hockey is fast and the difference in a one-goal game could be the result of your stick placement (applies to everyone, goalies included). "Second, chill out; keep it simple. It can be easy to over-complicate things and to try too hard when you get into a slump. Don’t over-think it; just keep your stick on the ice and things will work themselves out."

A Ringing Endorsement

There is nothing like a ringing endorsement to cap your week. Thank you Hilary! I can't wait for our next project together. I am so pleased to provide a recommendation for Alison Bruce. I have contracted Alison on numerous occasions when I was looking for help in co-creating and sharing knowledge as well as communicating key information in a compelling and different way. Alison can deliver more conventional products as well as truly avant guard. She has edited complex reports on a wide range of topics AND designed a Business Tarot Deck 20 years ago that I still use with my clients as it provides leadership insights we desperately need today. Alison has a unique lens on the world that allows her to capture and frame a wide range of content in new contexts that opens minds in a new way. One of her true gifts is her imagination, and this is one of the most critical domains we al...
