Making time to think (Ep. 1)

In this episode Juliet and Lucy consider why it’s so important as a leader to carve out time to think. It’s harder than it might sound and it first requires a shift in mindset, as well as the ability to give yourself permission and an acknowledgement that being busy doesn’t necessarily mean you’re being effective.

Time to think is not something to do when you’ve done everything else. When making time to think comes first, you can be more certain that the activities you’re planning are the ones that will deliver the greatest impact for you, the team and your organisation.

The world doesn't need any more noise, an army of identical leaders or rigid leadership models. Instead, the challenges we all face call for thoughtful, reflective, confident leadership. People who want to lead by example, bring others with them and who are ready to learn and adapt to deliver brilliant results.

Through candid conversations and practical insights they guide senior and aspiring leaders to carve out time to think, discover their own leadership style and cultivate a culture of empowerment and growth.
