Leadership and Business Roadmap - March 2023
“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.”
WELCOME TO MARCH!
March is an ideal time for developing our personal and professional development goals for the remainder of the year. While devising my own, I’ll admit that I got stuck on the professional development goals I wanted to set for myself. I craved something that would truly matter and enrich my life—both personally and professionally. I ultimately decided that making time for professional development was my actual goal. What development actions would you add to your own plan? Do you want to build your executive presence in the year ahead, or perhaps practice saying “No” when you don’t have bandwidth to take on that extra task? Do you want to normalize asking for help from members of your leadership team in your efforts to advance your career? Or maybe you’d like to make time for wellness each day, or learn ways to build your resilience? Whatever you’re considering, the vast offering of professional development content in Percipio can help you decide. There are courses and videos, books and audiobooks, and summaries and audio summaries to assist you in your development journey.
As you review this month’s new releases, I invite you to think about how you will leverage them to create your own personal and professional development goals and plans for growth.

Monthly Middle Monday Mindful Meditation
March 20th at 12PM EST
How are you liking our Monthly Middle Monday Mindful Meditation (MMMMM) sessions? They’re the perfect short break in your day to do something for YOU!
These are 30-minute sessions with Zen meditation practitioner, Florian Brody, where he explains what mindful meditation is, why it's important, and how it can help increase your self-awareness and manage stress. Then Brody leads attendees through a guided meditation, leaving a few minutes for a Q&A session afterward.
The next one is March 20th at 12PM EST. Treat yourself. You deserve it!
Leadercamps
We have a fantastic lineup planned on top-of-mind topics that are sure to pique your interest.
Be sure to update your calendar with these dates so you don’t miss any of these impactful Leadercamps.
OFF THE SHELF BOOK CLUB
We celebrated National Employee Appreciation Day last week on March 2nd, but let’s keep the appreciation flowing!
Employees are a company’s greatest asset, so it’s important to recognize the contributions they make to your business. All month long OFF THE SHELF is featuring a bookshelf of resources dedicated to recognizing the impactful ways employees support their organization’s goals and the importance of acknowledging their many contributions.
“Every woman’s success should be an inspiration to another. We’re strongest when we cheer each other on.”
—SERENA WILLIAMS
It’s critical to cultivate work cultures where women can grow their careers and thrive. This month, OFF THE SHELF celebrates the achievements and successes of women in leadership roles.
What better month to celebrate with a book club?!
According to Harry S. Truman, “All Leaders are Readers.” Reading is an important habit to form. It teaches us, inspires us, and helps us build mental acuity. OFF THE SHELF celebrates National Reading Month with a bookshelf of leadership success stories intended to inspire existing or aspiring leaders to achieve their own success.
Visit OFF THE SHELF today to leverage the discussion questions for any of these bookshelves.
From courses and Leadercamps to digital books and book club, there’s something for everyone.
