Pivotal Leadership: Thoughtful Action

/

2021 will be a year of thoughtful action for leaders and their teams.

Strong Connections

It means creating a stronger link with:

  • Customers

  • Collaborative team members

  • Partners

  • Suppliers

  • Your coaches and mentors

Investments Are Essential!

2021 will be a Year of Investment! Invest in:

  • Yourself; your self-care, your learning; your time to be humble and grateful;

  • Rapidly developing your staff, your teams, your colleagues, and your partners; educate, develop skills, and strengthen their communication and team-building.

  • Deeper commitment to communicating in multiple ways to all of your team, in every corner of your operation;

  • Your systems and processes! What do you need to do to optimize your System (not maximize!) and quickly improve your processes? The status quo and small improvements are not enough.

  • Your infrastructure; build out more foundational systems for scaling growth into the future. The time is now!

Reduce the Built-In Flaws, Complexity, and Waste

Organizations are full of waste (estimating 60-80%.) Ensure that you’re reducing waste and increasing productivity:

  •  Conduct a Team Audit. Are your teams all focused to support the Aim of your organization? Are they making progress at the speed you need? If you have too many teams that are struggling, you’re zapping the energy of your resources. Focus on a few, and disband those that are unproductive.

  • Post-pandemic planning and 2021 Strategic planning are different. Are you ready to implement both—at the speed that you will need?

  • Teams are burning out, zooming hour after hour (executives, managers, and employees) are exhausted, and often are too afraid to speak up. I’ve developed new team education, processes, and policies that can increase your meeting time productivity and reduce the time in meetings by 40 to 60%. Help your teams!
