Peak Performance and Peak Satisfaction in Your Business Career
You Were Hired For The Work You’re Avoiding
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Most leaders don’t skip the strategic work on purpose. They fill the day with things that feel productive instead, a clean inbox, a fast reply, a meeting they didn’t need to attend, and the real work quietly waits.
In this episode, I break down the two things leaders avoid without realizing it: thinking clearly when there’s no roadmap, and getting other people to actually back the idea once you have one. I share client stories on both, along with three practical frameworks you can use the next time you sit down to think strategically.
What You’ll Learn From This Episode:
- Why busywork can feel like diligence when it’s actually avoidance.
- The three barriers that keep leaders from doing their most important work.
- Three practical frameworks (SWOT, Porter’s Five Forces, and Six Sigma DMAIC) to use when you don’t know where to start.
- How to map stakeholders so your good idea doesn’t die in a meeting nobody remembers.
- A real story of a promotion nomination that only succeeded because of this exact kind of mapping.
- Whether you’re trying to carve out space to think or trying to get buy-in on something you already know needs to happen, I hope this episode gives you a concrete next step.
