Hey,
Managing & leading multiple projects & lifestyle factors can get hectic! It’s easy to get lost in the noise & lose sight of what’s really needed or how much impact you are having.
Building influence is an important element of balanced leadership, so to support my thinking & compound my daily momentum, I frequently come back to this short 7 point check-list of behaviours to re-affirm my intentions:
- Start your day with clarity — know the mission and priorities.
- Define clear wins for you or your team early.
- Coach instead of command = ask smart questions.
- Protect 90 minutes for your most important work.
- Recognise small wins — important for you & other people do notice.
- Reset after lunch — don’t let the day drift.
- Reflect before you finish — did you lead or just manage?
I hope this helps your as much as it does me on the journey to maximising your influence & clarity of thinking.
The best leaders ask people to come with them not to follow.
Have a great week. Thanks for reading.
Rich
