?? Company board chairs start their mandates with great expectations. They are picked because they inspire the confidence we need to navigate a challenging context. They might be voted in because we expect them to refresh a stale, underperforming board. Or, we might have simply chosen them as an antidote to a previous administration. They might also be the personification of all that we admire in a director. How can they live up to expectations, and make an impact? Even when directors know their new chair, they cannot guarantee that the alignment produced by the chair’s nomination process continues after they start in the role. And yet, the first few months are critical to great impact for a new chair. There is no need to fly with low visibility. Or rely on board colleagues being open about their perceptions of the chair. Chairs: ??Go find out! ??And then, calibrate your actions to maximize your impact. ??Make your focus and dedication add up to maximum impact with the FitBoard Chair acceleration package. Accelerate your positive impact. Use our #FitBoard coaching package to maximize your effort. https://lnkd.in/eFK4a4-R

Celebrating 15 Years of Mojo... I listened to Paul Spiegelman and Bo Burlingham share their reflections on the past 15 years of the Small Giants Community. If you’re not familiar with #SmallGiants, we are a community of purpose-driven businesses united by a shared set of core beliefs. In his book, Bo Burlingham describes Small Giants as having 'a neat magical quality called Mojo'— the business equivalent of charisma. When a business has Mojo, you want to follow it, buy from it, and work there. ?? Now, imagine the impact when these businesses come together as a community. During the opening reception of this year's Small Giants Summit, I was asked about the ROI of attending the event. I can only speak from personal experience, but I'm sure my views are shared by many members... When I hit a growth plateau and sought to grow my business, I leaned on the community. At the time, we had these fantastic Passport events that took us behind the scenes at Small Giants like Zingerman's, Tasty Catering, and others. I remember feeling like a desperate CEO when Rob Dube recommended implementing EOS Worldwide. Bo Burlingham suggested I join an EO Chapter, and Tom Walter invited me to see how Tasty Catering was running The Great Game of Business. Their support and wisdom and support were, and continue to be, invaluable. Fast forward a decade to this week... I had the opportunity to share ideas on intentional growth and mindset with Mackey McNeill, CPA, PFS, and I look forward to exploring these topics further with her for my upcoming book. Right after our call, I delivered a book on Dignity in Business from Ari Weinzweig at Zingerman's to Susan Barry. We spent an hour discussing the power of community and the importance of businesses having deep connections in their community. That conversation sparked the idea for a fall dinner in Zurich— Joe Tabet, I hope you can join us! And, of course, none of this would be possible without the small but mighty team bringing us all together: Hamsa Daher, Bridget Bateman, Kathryn Sowa, and Annie Gough. If you're looking for a community of purpose-driven leaders, a space to nurture the next generation within your organization, and access to counsel from founders and owners of businesses with Mojo... check out Small Giants Community. #SmallGiants #Entrepreneurship #Community #Growth #Purpose

Event + Reaction = Outcome. 2 weeks after the Vistage UK Summit these words by Jamil Qureshi are still reverberating around my head. It’s become my mantra. We don’t necessarily control the EVENT (Coveys’ circle of concern) but we can control our REACTION (circle of influence) which means we ALWAYS have some say over the final OUTCOME. I have historically referred to this as: Don’t be a D*ck (That’s the reaction. The event is “other people being d*cks”) I try to live by this, but very often I fail. Sometimes you need to hear something said in a slightly different way to remind yourself of this stuff and to renew your commitment to what matters to you most. If you haven’t heard Jamil speak you’re missing out. I cannot recommend him highly enough! #keynotespeaker #recommendation #review

This is the simplest hack you can do as a business leader whether you’re in corporate or an entrepreneur... Time-blocking. Yep, that’s it. If you are running multiple businesses or have multiple tasks that you need to get done in a day, come up with your list of things that you NEED to do in a day and put a dedicated time to each of those tasks on your calendar. I have coached a number of successful business leaders, and I promise that this hack works for all types of business. Without it, you run the risk of double booking, forgetting, running out of time or worse, procrastinating. How do you stay organized? #businesscommunity #clevelcommunity #entreprenurialcommunity
