On Productivity

The late Jack Welch once said that before he was a manager success was about what he could achieve, once he became a manager success was defined by what he could help his people achieve. He needed to flip his definition of success.

I find that many entrepreneurs have the wrong idea about productivity. For a leader productivity doesn’t mean simply getting more things done each day, but rather it is about getting the really important things done consistently.

Really important tasks are the ones which increase your personal quality of life in the long run.

So there needs to be a shift in thinking, from getting more stuff done to getting the right things done and getting them done consistently.

Do you need to flip your ideas about how you apply your time?

So the questions for today are:

• As a leader what are the really important (not urgent) tasks that you and only you can do?
• What proportion of your time is used in the pursuit of the above and how much time are you wasting on stuff someone else should be doing?
• What can you do about that?

Many successful business owners eventually hit a wall on growth and struggle to climb it alone. When you work with me you get a fresh perspective, a solid plan, and customised coaching so you can grow and scale your business safely and at speed.
