The Strategic Leader

Colleagues,
 
It’s Friday, and for me that always means it is time to reflect. In my conversations with leaders, it feels like we are beginning to settle into a “new normal.” That doesn’t mean that things aren’t still evolving and changing daily, but it does mean that it looks like we’ll be doing this for a while.
 
While unique challenges will doubtless arise, it is time to start refining your systems and reordering your life, or at least your leadership. On Monday, we’ll begin a series focused on taking care of yourself while leading from home. Here are the topics:

• Monday: Establishing healthy and productive routines
• Tuesday: Structuring your work-from-home space
• Wednesday: Renewing yourself
• Thursday: Leadership practices to increase mental and emotional resilience

 
In addition to this blog, you can sign up for my emails, text message summaries, videos and a webinar. Links are below.
 
Given where we’ve been and where we are headed, this particular Friday is a great time to reflect on your routines. Reflect on these questions:

1. If you’ve recently transitioned to working more from home, how have your routines changed?
2. Do you actually have routines in place for leading from home?
3. What’s working?
4. What has surprised you?
5. What needs to change?

 
Reflecting on these things today will lay a great foundation for actually establishing and adjusting new routines as we begin that work on Monday.
 
Have a great weekend, do good, and be well.
 
Frederick
