Now you’re clear on how you're deciding to spend your time, it's time to start 'slicing and dicing'.

I recommend going old-school with pen, paper and a template like this.

Spring 2017, I was working in the luxury automotive sector.

A colleague and I started chatting about how his mate (an ex AFL pro) got ripped by limiting his carbs to less than 100g/day.

Summer was coming up, so we thought we’d give it a go, and committed to a 3-month challenge.

The first workshop in our new space. 🚀

For some, it was the first time in their career they'd done any professional development.

To start with, there was resistance and scepticism.

I recently spent $2500 fixing a $3 problem. Ouch.

Time to wave the white flag 🏳 and surrender to the so-called “silly season”?

Or…

Might there be a different way of thinking and acting that could deliver you a better result ❓

Business coaching is a collaborative process that empowers YOU to make informed decisions, take action, and achieve your business goals while learning and developing along the way.

Getting your TEAM to contribute IDEAS often feels like getting blood out of a stone. 💀

Pulled this book off the shelf to do some prep for our upcoming team themed Growth Intensive.

Gotta say, it’s fire 🔥, especially the ‘triple bottom line’ concept.

Massive congrats to Jayden and the Empire Chicken team on the launch of their new Addington store. 🎉

Few people understand the pressures of running a company over the last few years, let alone one in the hospitality industry.

I've been hearing a lot of business owners talk about PRESSURE lately. 🤯

Feeling like they don't have a second to waste, like they're on a treadmill that's getting faster and faster, steeper and steeper.

I’ve got very few spare hours in my week. 🗓

So when I looked at my calendar on Thursday evening and saw the whole day blocked out for a team day on Friday.

I thought, ‘SH$T I haven’t got time for that!’ 😨

Great to see Sam Ellis and the Grizzly team in their new home. The last year has been huge for them, growing to a team of 50 and revenue increasing >40%!

Great things happen when a tight group of owners ask each other challenging questions - like this one from yesterday’s Boardroom.

I’m in the process of building a weekly planning discipline.

Gotta say, it ain’t easy, I’ve left my kids watching Barbie, and frankly there’s a part of me that would rather be bingeing on some classic UFC fights. 🥊

2-years ago we introduced 'Hotseat' at our quarterly client Growth Intensive.

Unsurprisingly these went OFF 🔥, and they've been a fixture at every event since! That got me thinking - how else we could leverage "the power of the group"?

Back from a week in Fiji! 🇫🇯


5 things I learned:

…..

Is your team focused on…🤷‍♂️

1. A COMMON goal

2. Doing their JOB?

Reflecting on your actions so far in 2023, what kind of business is it that you’re building?
