Global Green Room Part 2


Urban Meyer
Work-Life Balance – action focused
1.       Create 2 columns on your page.  One labelled Beliefs and the other labelled Convictions.  Beliefs are things we hold.  Convictions are things that hold us.   See if there is a difference between what we say and what we do.  Is there a match between the time and money we spend (our convictions) and our beliefs?
2.       The best you can do is the best you can do. As long as you are doing the best that you can, you don’t need the additional stress of doing more than that to take away from the energy and passion that you have for your work.  Your set of priorities cannot be too long.  Too many priorities is as bad as no priorities.

Global Green Room Part 1


At each Leadercast break on May 4th, Mark Sanborn was interviewed by Laura Lang with the intention of summarizing the topics and notes of each speaker and providing actionable points to go do right NOW.

Notes from the interviews will take up the next few blog posts.  Stay tuned and please provide your feedback about how you are implementing what you heard.


Learning is what happens when you apply what you just heard.

Moving from telling and commanding to asking and listening
1.       The next time you get an important announcement or decision will you be able to frame it in such a way so that you can say ‘this is what I believe and think, tell me if I am right, tell me how I might be wrong and tell me what I am missing.’ Because if you ask those questions and you are sincerely looking for an answer, not just going through the motions, you will get some additional information that will be powerful.
2.       What are you here for (as a leader)?  What are you trying to accomplish in your role as a leader today?
