Navigating org issues as a Director / Head Of can be tough.

We’re responsible for an area and see the problems on the ground but aren’t always the decision maker.

Hi new friends! I’m a former COO now an advisor, writer, and facilitator who works with startups and leadership teams.

Binging on thrillers where animals are the predators. So far I’ve watched Lake Placid. Jaws and Tremors are up next.

What else should I add to my list?

I’ve found two conditions critical to my ability to create:

- a balance between output and input
- regular periods of unstructured time

What about you?

One of the best things I’ve learned is how to take responsibility for a mistake or misstep without going into shame.

My favorite thing before doing deep work is to read for an hour. Today’s book.
