Daily LEADERSHIP Tip / Clean-up Time

Day 33

Yesterday I emailed you some thoughts on Binge Leadership.  Now it is Clean-up Time.

Here is one simple way to hold yourself accountable to cleaning-up some of the mess of Binge Leadership:  Take a moment of Sanctuary - a break without email, cell phone interruptions, no computer - to consider without bias:

What is one idea or project that is taking time and resources that needs to be postponed, or dropped altogether, BECAUSE it is not building on our core strengths?.

WARNING :  I learned the hard way that leadership is NOT the initiative to drop.  The systems you have to better hire, manage, develop, and retain - yes, systems to keep your people (you actually have to do something regularly) affect every line item in your financial results.  

If your leadership systems are lacking, then continue to work it.  Maybe you need to start something in this area instead of that "great idea" you had a month ago that is going nowhere significant.

It is Thursday.  Where are you with your 3 Strandsfor the week?  How about your daily W.I.N.?

And, how are your employees doing?

Let me know if you need help.

Be a Systematic Leader - because inconsistency hurts

Thank you.
