The Secret Life of a Leader...

LEADERS TELL ME... DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR TO YOU?
You wake up with the stress of all the things that were missed yesterday and the follow-ups you need to do today already in fear that the work isn’t complete.
The anxiety & planning ahead woke you up before the alarm clock so you open your inbox from your phone (in the hopes you can get ahead).
After your morning routine (which you weren't really present for), you rush off to drop off the kids and get to work with coffee in hand.
You dive into communications and get pulled in different directions dealing with the fires of the day. There is no focused time for high payoff activities that move the needle.
The day gets hijacked managing the chaos and people rather than leading the way towards future success.
Between fires and zoom meetings, there’s no time left. There’s never enough time.
Then after a busy day… You sit at your desk and look down at the projects waiting for you not knowing where to start. So, you go home with work in hand.
You silently wish people could just step up and take responsibility for their work…
They should know better. Right?!?
You're never off the clock, chipping away at work while the family engages in activities.
BUT WHAT IF YOUR DAY COULD LOOK LIKE THIS? ??
You wake up rested as you ease into the morning, taking care of you and your family's needs first, so you can show up for your day and your people with steadiness and ENERGIZED to lead your team to greatness.
After walking into the office and getting a lay of the land from your trusted assistant, you gather your team for a quick and effective stand up meeting that sets up the path and the motivation to make this day count.
You take 15 minutes to consult your agenda and reprioritize as needed.
The day is well-balanced with
1?? focused block off (uninterrupted time) for deep work,
2?? investing in connection time for nurturing strategic relationships and building up employees / team to be at their best, and
3?? flex time for the urgent tasks and communications of the day.
Information flows and work progress is evident. So you can trust your team to have your back.

The passion is palpable.
People take initiative and do the work without being managed.
Daily wrap up is full of pride while taking an account of the good work accomplished and setting up the calendar for success tomorrow.
Giving praise and appreciation is easy when there’s a reason to do it and you feel it.
You are recognized by higher-management because the picture of success is met (a picture that you and your team helped shape).
You leave work at the office!
You return home ready to share your wins at the dinner table while you enjoy quality time with your family and cherish the moments that make life worth living.
?? THIS PICTURE IS A REALITY FOR MY CLIENTS!
