Management is hard work and you’re balancing the demands well. You’re stronger in some areas than others, which is normal.
Choose 1-2 areas to level up where your attention could have the greatest impact right now.
Focus on areas you answered “sometimes” or “not really.” If you aren’t sure, ask: where would a little more focus take me from “pretty good” to “really strong”?
Your People: Building a team that’s engaged, focused, and aligned starts here.
We believe that relationship-building is a core competency for effective management (equitable, sustainable, and results-driven). This guide is for managers looking to build (more) supportive and functional relationships with their staff.
When check-ins are done right, they can revolutionize the way you manage. In this article, we share our best tips for getting the most out of your check-ins.
Working on a team requires great communication—giving clear directions, aligning on expectations, and offering (and receiving) feedback that helps people grow. In this article, we share a simple framework for giving more and better feedback: CSAW.
The Work: Equip your team to succeed by handing off meaningful work and getting aligned on expectations.
Use this practical guide to prioritize your highest-impact work. Learn the “big rocks” method, weigh urgency and importance, craft a to-do list, and stay on top of your tasks.
When looking for work you can delegate, ask yourself: what are the areas where you can make the greatest impact and leverage your strengths? Use comparative advantage to decide what work you should own and what you should delegate.
A key component of the delegation cycle is finding strategic ways for the manager to stay engaged. This article helps managers and staff align on where to check in over the course of a project.
The Culture: Create an environment where people thrive.
Sphere of control is a concept that helps people focus their precious time and energy on the things they can control so that they can make a greater impact where it matters most.
When it comes to sustainability at work, recovery is just as important as pushing through. Use this worksheet to identify practices in your sphere of control to help you recover and restore.
The more self-awareness and authentic consideration of others we cultivate, the better equipped we are to build and get better results, especially during moments of conflict, tension, and frustration. One key way to do this is through perspective-taking.
