Where Emotional &Artificial Intelligence Converge.

I have spent my entire career as an agent of change. I have worked with companies of all shapes and sizes inside every industry, some companies with 50 employees, some with 50,000.  Since 2006, I sold software as a service for some of the most progressive software companies on earth, further instilling in me the habit of continuous learning.  

 

To learn is to study, to study is to observe.  I have been inside over 1,000 companies working with leaders and managers inside the C-suite, Human Resources, Finance, Supply Chain, you name it. Throughout it all, there is one absolute truth I maintain: the health of any organization is inherently tied to the health of the organisms working within it.

 

In 2016, I learned what it was like to go through a divorce and become a single dad. Since I worked from home, my life absolutely influenced my work and my performance slipped… in corporate-speak, I had zero “work-life balance”. Unbalanced, stressed, and out of my comfort zone, I fell back on my core beliefs and then the magic started to happen.

 

While the majority of the people all around me experienced a growing sense of mental and emotional stress, disengagement at work, and varying degrees of unhappiness, I was evolving.  Now a student and teacher of continuous learning and continuous change, I have upgraded the way I processed stress and I turned it into a competitive advantage. Lifework Integration is the upgraded version of the failed, out-dated corporate-based concept known as work-life balance.

 

For me, life should be considered more valuable than work, so Lifework makes sense.  As a software guy, I know that integration can be defined as the free-flowing exchange of energy and ideas between at least two systems.  Whereas work-life balance forces a person to choose between life or work, Lifework Integration is the friction-less, free-flowing exchange of energy and ideas between a person’s life and their work.
