Show Notes
The hardest thing I ever tried to do as an executive was to stop the sh!t that had already started: it gets a life of its own.
On top of that, new work is being dreamt up all the time, further adding to your prioritisation nightmare.
A recent article from The Economist argued that too many people are shockingly bad at prioritisation, and that the root cause isn't process; it's behaviour.
I couldn't agree more. In this episode, I'll unpack what the research says, then give you seven practical ways to get on top of your prioritisation problems, starting with the one thing most leaders never get clear on: value.

You never know what to expect when mentoring CEOs.
