Podcast highlights: Be a “Virtuoso Leader”… Leaders often have to be able and ready to play many different roles in their business. A “Virtuoso Leader” has the ability and knowledge to realize what situations call for which roles and to adapt to new situations quickly. Use emotional intelligence: employees need an outlet to express their emotions. Check in with them and allow them to express issues so you can help process them. Motivate your staff… Be relentless: a leader must project energy to their team and talk to them often in order to keep them focused and on the same page. You’ll have to repeat yourself multiple times – this is a good thing. Employees like consistent messaging; it gives them a sense of purpose and mission. Create a Company “Time Management Calendar”… By creating a specific weekly schedule, you can keep your team on track. Consider eliminating Monday meetings – use the day instead to “absorb and process.” Then give each other day of the week a theme:  Use Tuesdays to “download and discuss,” Wednesdays to “adapt and decide,” Thursdays to “keep, start, or stop doing,” and Fridays to “prepare and reflect” (and maybe leave early!)
