    Driving Strategy, Culture and Brand Promises at Smart Dolphins | Managed IT I Technology Training | Business Things

    The world is driven (obsessed, even) to do more in less time. Efficiency and productivity matter, of course. The real productivity killer isn’t time—it’s spending energy on "good" things instead of the right things. That takes clarity, not better time management. AI and technology can help with clarity and efficiency, but the former is less obvious. AI is often framed as efficiency driven, but that risks reinforcing the busy, shallow work. It's becoming much easier to do the wrong things... and lots of them!? I wrote a few weeks ago about seeing AI as a "thought partner". So instead of having it create mountains of output for you, try getting it to help you think about fewer things. This has been the game changer for me: I use AI daily to take my brain blobs and help me sculpt them down to the golden nugget in the middle. Used right, ChatGPT isn’t just an output machine, it’s a clarity machine, helping cut through noise to find what actually matters. So pause. Reflect. Ask your AI (with the right context): What truly matters today? What should you stop doing (or delegate or postpone at least)? I know my list is still longer than I'd like.?

    One of the best opportunities for leaders to make an impact for their teams is by creating a regular sense of renewal. It's not only good for the team, it's good for you. Right now, this idea is front and center for me. Smart Dolphins IT Solutions Inc. is about to move into our new office space (March 3!), and we’re also celebrating our 25th anniversary this year. I’ve been framing both as the start of our “next chapter.” And while that might sound like an obvious morale exercise, it’s actually something deeper. It’s easy for days to become weeks and weeks become years. We’re all working toward making progress, but that progress can often feel like a slow, incremental crawl. It can even lead to getting in a rut and going through the motions. We all get there from time to time. To combat that, it's important to look for opportunities to recognize the big and small milestones along the way. These are opportunities to create fresh energy, renewed focus, and momentum for something bigger. People naturally fear change and are looking for context. A leader can shift that sense of fear into excitement with the proper framing. And this isn't "spin" - we're not here to give false hopes or inauthentic cheering.?There is a choice in how you view a change and as leaders, we have the ability to help shape the team’s mindset. Our office move is a big example of this, but we don’t need to wait for massive changes to create renewal. The start of a new year, a new quarter, or even a new week can be an opportunity to step back, refresh our perspective, and bring new energy to our work. And if your teams need renewal, so do you as a leader. Perpetual busy-ness can lead to burnout or you can lose the plot. That’s why regular, intentional personal resets matter. Taking time to reflect, learn, remind yourself of your plan and/or redefine what you want to create with your business (and your life) creates a lot of clarity and renewed energy. I get it: we're all busy. I'll say this: if you can't take an hour or two at some point in your week to get above your work life then I can be almost certain you're missing your potential... by a lot. So here’s my challenge to fellow leaders: Don’t wait for major transitions to create a sense of renewal. Build it into your weekly leadership rhythm. Finding a couple hours between Friday at 3pm and Monday at 8am will save you a lot of time and pain in between those hours. What are some ways you’ve created renewal in your leadership journey?

  • Just like in construction, a strong foundation is essential for long-term business stability. While visible investments like branding and customer experience are important, an overlooked IT infrastructure can lead to inefficiencies, security risks, and missed opportunities. In this post, we explore how IT mirrors construction and why a solid IT foundation is critical for sustainable growth.

    IT plays a crucial role in business, but choosing the right IT partner can be a huge challenge. In this article, I share a conversation with a CEO that highlights what really matters when making that decision. It isn’t just about tech specs and costs.
