Stop Setting Goals
Yep I said it, goals don’t work. Like I always say, I not a motivational speaker, I like to tell people what not to do, I am an un-motivational speaker. I hate when I read things about goal setting. That speaking your goal makes it more likely to happen. What? Or writing them down makes […]
Conference Tips for MGC Members
As we enter the conference season… AFLV Central and West, the NGLA Conference, and several other regional conferences I thought I would write some advice for the culturally based Greek members out there attending conferences. I remember my first MGCA (called AFLV Central now) in 2001. Out of over 1,200 participants there was less than […]
Cars and People
This past weekend I spoke at the national convention of the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA). I am a member, and I was asked to present one of the keynote times, and one small breakout. I run our teen driving school in my region, and we received several awards for our program so I […]
Fall 2016!
This fall was a fun and hectic time for OutSight Consulting! Lets recap! Hazing Programs! As an original board member for HPO I used to do a lot of programs on hazing. I strayed away from it and was glad to get a few requests this year. I traveled to sunny Miami to one of […]
Why Retreats Matter
This past weekend I was with the NextGeneration (#RJONextGen) Conference in Chicago. Hosted by the Retail Jewelers Organization (RJO), NextGen is designed to help provide management skills and leadership experience to those moving up and preparing to take ownership of independent jewelry stores. I helped write the originally curriculum a few years ago and have […]

Hot August
August was a hot month, and a very busy month. The first weekend of August I had not one, but two conventions on the same weekend! Luckily both were in Chicago, and both groups were flexible so I was able to take turns going from one place to another. Because August is hectic at work, […]
2015 Six Month Review
It was a very busy six months, and it ended with a bang doing a program for my very own Fraternity. All I can say is thank you to all my clients, contacts, friends and especially Brothers for making it all possible for me. This was the semester of driving… and more driving… I don’t […]
Start With The Brother #SLBLI2015
This past weekend in Chicago was the Sigma Lambda Beta 2015 Leadership Institute. Interestingly I was the coordinator for two of these, 2005 and 2007, and served on the Board of Directors when it was changed from “Brotherhood Retreat” to our Leadership Institute. I am so proud to see the direction of the program and […]
Polishing Diamonds with RJO
Last weekend I had a great time working with the Retail Jewelers Organization (RJO) on a program I helped design for them last year. The “Next Generation Experience” is designed to help the up and coming future leaders of the fine jewelry industry. The participants were mostly second generation jewelers ready to lead their store, […]
