Mission

The Mindgrowth Digest is dedicated to empowering seasoned professionals and retirees with the tools and insights needed to boost productivity, learning and creativity with Generative AI.

Through simple, practical, actionable content, we provide resources that will help you to learn about Generative AI, and use it to learn, grow, boost productivity, and give you the competitive edge to stay ahead, or just simplify life.

To achieve this mission, I will also focus on topics such as Leadership, Mindset and Personal Development. Any growth or change must start from within.

Vision

The vision for the newsletter is to provide meaningful topics on a monthly basis, maybe bi-weekly, if there is demand. These topics will focus in the following areas:

• Business Productivity (with and without AI Tools) - You can be productive with current tools at your disposal. However, with the onset of AI, there is a whole new toolset available. Do you know where to start, or how?
• Leadership, Personal Development and Mindset - Positivity, Attitude and Personal Development are the foundation. This newsletter would be incomplete if it was not encouraging, positive or fostering a desire for learning.
• Retirement - Retirees shouldn’t get left behind, just because they are now out of the workforce. Generative AI offers a multitude of ways to simplify life, enhance learning, and foster creativity. Follow us as we provide simple tools and resources geared towards learning about AI.
• Practicality, Tools & Resources - The goal of this newsletter is to also provide you resources that are practical, and can help you with your goal or vision. Resources will be provided so that you can learn more and utilize the information provided in the newsletter. This may include suggested books or eBooks, checklists, templates, documents, videos, audio, web links, etc…
• Reader Experiences - I would like to have fellow Readers, and industy experts share their advice, and learning so that the community can grow, not just through my experiences, but the experiences of those in the community.

Bio

Here’s a little bit about me… and why I started The Mindgrowth Digest.

I’ve worked in the automotive and defense sectors my entire career, going on 25 years now. Throughout that time, I’ve helped launch Vehicle Programs, Solve Problems, Build Systems and Innovate along the way. I won’t go through the details; you can look through my LinkedIn profile if you so choose.

Along the way, I have always had a creative spark, looking for ways to improve work, build systems, solve problems, and teach along the way. This lead me into multiple positions within Quality, Quality Engineering, Supplier Quality, Compliance and Continuous Improvement. Process and Product Development have also come into play recently, and I’m always looking for a means to streamline, reduce waste, or minimize variation (LSS). For those that have worked with me, I should hope I’m thought of as an innovator, or someone who helps to solve problems.

I’ve also had a penchant for self-development, skill development and that entrepreneurial spirit. Let’s say there’s always room for improvement, and I have plenty of room to improve. 😀

In the past few years, with the onset of AI, and the array of AI tools out there, a new level of creativity within me has been ignited. I see a tremendous opportunity to leverage these tools to drive improvements.

I’ve noticed that many people are not taking advantage of the benefits they could gain from AI, and these people are typically my age and older, 45+. Mostly, these people don’t understand the productivity opportunities with AI, or just don’t have time to learn, with their busy schedules.

My hope with this newsletter is to take some of that knowledge I’ve gained and help others drive improvement either in their careers, or in their personal lives.
