Volume 34 - Do the Little Things

Volume 34 - Do the Little Things

Weekly Quote

“If you want to change the world…start off by making your bed.” – Admiral William McRaven


Cobblestone

Admiral McRaven’s, Make Your Bed, is one of my favorite books. It’s simple yet profound premise should be embraced by every leader: consistently doing the small things leads to big things.?


?Call to Action

Extraordinary Leaders set the example by doing the ordinary and mundane consistently. A leader’s attention to detail creates an environment the team follows and drives their success. A leader’s example is worth 1,000 words.


What’s it Worth

Celebrate the mundane small tasks that make the big tasks possible. Leaders are encouragers and extraordinary leaders encourage continually. Let you staff see you “catching” them doing foundational tasks.
