In client services, communication breakdowns can derail projects. I faced this during a critical phase with a key client when urgent demands led to misunderstandings. To resolve the issue, I scheduled a quick call and asked specific questions: “Can you elaborate on the aspects causing delays?” Summarizing their concerns clarified the situation and made them feel heard. Next, I set realistic deadlines, saying, “I can update you by Friday and deliver the revised proposal by next Tuesday.” Finally, I involved my team, saying, “Let’s brainstorm solutions together.” By the week’s end, we exceeded the client’s expectations, reinforcing the value of clarity, transparency, and collaboration in overcoming challenges.

Begin with the”Why?” When facing high-octane situations driven by pressing issues like time constraints or the need for a financial fix, rational thinking often rinses off like a morning shower. Recognizing her knowledge gap faced by many high-powered executives on how to strategically hit the “pause” button was one of the main drivers behind me creating tailored coaching and leadership modules for them. As Founder & Chief Love Officer of ShanitaSpeaks LLC, I show fellow company founders, CEOS, C-Suite executives and other thought leaders, effective ways to “slow down” in order to speed up where they need to be.
