Being able to describe our processes succinctly is critical. Summarizing our elevator pitch is also very important as well. Often we don't get a lot of time with our executive leaders, so we have to maximize the face time we do get. This is where we can deliver the "bottom line up front" approach to queuing up leadership decisions.
In 2 minutes or less, be able to:
Summarize the thing you need a decision onState the decision the team needs the leader to makeDescribe the impact on scope, schedule, cost, or qualityShare the team's recommendationMore at kevtalkspod.com

Having hope is crucial. It helps us persevere when we're feeling stuck, motivates us when we're unwell, and pulls us out of the depths of despair during difficult times. However, while hope can be a powerful driving force, it's not enough on its own to get things done.
Hope won’t build a fire, make a shelter or find a water source when you’re strandedHope will not get you out of bed; push your body to move through the trauma and begin to healHope alone will not help you succeed at work and advance in your careerHope is not a stand-alone solutionWe need more than hope. We need a process. We need a plan.
