The Benefits of Delegation Done Right

Delegating can be a struggle for many leaders. I see it quite often with the leaders I coach or train. One of my clients is a capable and talented leader who knows her stuff. She is often sidetracked when a team member comes to her with a challenge they can’t seem to solve. As they discuss the problem, she usually figures out a solution. Since she knows how to solve it, she says to the team member, “I will do it, and you can continue to work on the other project.” She repeats this at least once a week with members of her team. She wants her team to be productive and not bogged down with issues. She feels good because they can work on things they are familiar with. This makes sense to her. Except she is becoming extremely busy and not able to complete her own work because of the additional tasks she is taking on. She is beginning to feel burned out.

From Episode 86 of The Complete Leader Podcast

Do you remember when you could only buy one song at a time, on a 45? Or, if you had enough money, maybe five or six songs on each side of a 33?

Perhaps I’m dating myself.

But paradigms within the music industry have changed significantly over the past several decades, from vinyl records to cassette tapes to CDs to getting your music over the internet—and now we each have entire libraries at our fingertips. These paradigm shifts, especially with the coming of the internet, were hugely disruptive to the industry. But they each took place to solve a problem or exploit an opportunity.

How to Build Your Support Net

Keeping yourself on track takes more than a great system. Staying on track takes a net woven together with supportive people who will push you to go higher, hold you up and catch you when you fall.

Four Questions to Grow Your Conceptual Thinking Skills

From Episode 85 of The Complete Leader Podcast

Imagine a coworker tells you they’re going to a soccer game tomorrow.

Flexibility and Resiliency

How prepared are you for the unexpected? “Life happens”—and doesn’t it always seem to do so at the most inopportune times?

You can perfectly plan your schedule, and then life inserts itself, throws you off base, and leaves you bewildered about how this could have happened when you were so well-organized.
