Deloitte Consulting CEO, Dan Helfrich, champions a balanced lifestyle as key to success. He emphasizes exercise, family time, healthy eating, and regular communication with his loved ones and colleagues. Instead of a strict daily routine, Helfrich operates on a bi-weekly or monthly basis, focusing on quality interactions. His flexible work style is punctuated with family time and personal activities, tailored to his rhythm.
Helfrich's unique planning approach involves checking his schedule on the morning of each day, generating a sense of excitement and renewal. He values seeking advice while also trusting his judgment, and he warns against rigid career plans that may overlook unforeseen opportunities. His philosophy emphasizes holistic well-being, flexibility, and an openness to unexpected possibilities as crucial components of professional success.
Learn how Dan plan’s his days for success, how he thinks about structured career plans, and why he equates leadership to being a captain or a coach.
