Welcome to Work in Progress!
Hi there! My name is Al Dea. I write about how the workplace is changing and the implications for organizations and employees. I’m a facilitator, keynote speaker, author, and podcast host.
I advise companies and leaders who want to stay ahead on topics like developing talent, leadership, and workplace trends. In addition to research and advising, I spend my days coaching and developing employees on how to be effective people leaders in a changing world of work.
My mission is to help leaders create engaged, sustainable, and healthy workplace cultures that enable people to use their talents and potential to make an impact .
What to expect:
I try to publish at least once two weeks.
Every edition, I write and share insights and learnings on how work is evolving, and what it means for leaders. I also will also share occasional personal updates on I am running my business.
My goal is to give you the reader new ideas to ponder, actionable tactics to try, and stories that inspire leader to build better companies and cultures that unleash the potential and performance of their people.
