When you are leading a business, it can be easy to get caught in the details and fail to step back every now and then to ask some important questions. Here are a few questions you might ask yourself:
- Are you running (tactical) your company – or leading (strategy) your company?
- How is the life you are living different from the one you want to be leading?
- What is bringing you 80% of your stress? What is bringing you 80% of your joy?
- Are you appreciating or depreciating as a leader? What would your employees say?
- Backing out compensation, why would someone want to work at your company?
These are just a few of the types of questions I might suggest you yourself to gain perspective and clarity on what you do every day and what you should be doing.
What’s getting in your way? I’d love to talk about that.
