The brutal truth: Multitasking is killing your leadership
Hi again,
I hope all is well.
In a world full of distractions, being present can be one of the most powerful things a leader can do.
One CEO I worked with realized that his habit of multitasking during meetings made his team feel unimportant. He committed to being fully present, and the impact was immediate.
What he changed:
- He put away his phone and closed his laptop during meetings.
- Practiced active listening to ensure everyone felt heard.
- Made his availability predictable, so his team could count on his focus when it mattered most.
Your reflection: Are you giving your team your full attention, or could you improve your presence?
