2 Thoughts - Money & Magnitude

#1: Magnitude & Money

Most CEOs know exactly what their challenges are, but it seems like there are never enough resources to solve them.  Here's a secret though - big wins can begin in the next 15 minutes.

One of the simplest strategies I use with clients is to carve out small pockets of guided thinking space. We review the organizational chart, rate each team member’s performance (1-10, no 7s), and put a dollar value on the biggest pain points. Is it a $10k problem? A $100k problem? Or a $1M problem? Then, take a pause — no immediate fixes, just let their mind sit with it and come back to it in the near future.

The reality is they don't need me to solve the problems, they just need help making space to think about it.  

#2: One Question to Ask Yourself

Where could the business be in 12 months if I made small pockets to focus on the top challenges that only I can address?
