Why Summer May Be the Best Networking Season of All

When someone says networking, what picture pops into your mind?

A business conference? A chamber of commerce mixer? Name tags? Elevator pitches? The awkward moment of balancing a plate of appetizers while trying to remember someone’s name?

You’re not alone. That is the traditional concept and focus of networking.

Now think about summer.

Vacations. Gardens. Cookouts. Beaches. Farmers’ markets. Outdoor concerts. Community festivals. Long evenings on the porch.

Networking probably isn’t anywhere on that list.

Or is it?

The way we usually think about networking is very structured.

We go somewhere because we want to meet people. We introduce ourselves professionally, exchange contact information, and hope to build relationships that may benefit us somewhere down the road.

There’s nothing wrong with that. Structured networking has its place.

I think summer gives us permission to practice a different kind of networking...

The Quiet Damage of Shame-Based Leadership

There are truths about human development that deserve to be stated plainly: shame is not an effective leadership or educational tool. It never has been.

From the 17th through 19th centuries, shame was commonly used as a mechanism for discipline and behavioral control. In homes, schools, religious institutions, and workplaces, humiliation and embarrassment were often mistaken for moral instruction. The cost was enormous. Many learning opportunities were lost, and many spirits diminished under the weight of fear, self-doubt, and wounded self-worth.

While society has evolved in countless ways, vestiges of this approach remain deeply embedded in modern culture. Shame still appears in families, educational environments, organizations, and leadership practices—sometimes overtly, often subtly. Yet its impact remains unchanged.

There are truths about human relationships that deserve to be stated plainly: shame is not a healthy tool for teaching, correction, connection, or growth. In short, shame is not a healthy tool under any circumstances – period.

Historically, shame was widely used to control behavior. In homes, schools, religious institutions, and workplaces, humiliation and embarrassment were often mistaken for discipline or moral instruction. Thus, people learned through fear, fear of exposure, criticism, rejection, or ridicule. We have to wonder what they really learned, other than fear.

Though times have changed, remnants of this approach still linger in everyday life...

The Illusion of Objectivity: What Leaders Must Learn to See

We like to believe we can be objective—especially about ourselves. Under the right conditions, with enough discipline, enough experience, enough intention… surely we can see ourselves clearly.

That confidence rests on an illusion.

Objectivity, in its pure form, is not something we access at will. Not about ourselves. Not about others. Not even about the systems we lead. We are shaped—continuously—by experience, identity, culture, context, and history. Every observation we make is filtered through those lenses, whether we acknowledge them or not.

This is not a flaw to be corrected. It is a reality to be reckoned with.

Because something important happens when we stop insisting that our own objectivity is possible....
