01
Do the right things
Not merely do things right. The important work is recruiting, training, process, thinking, and developing the team.
02
Control the calendar
Do not let others take all your time, control what you pay attention to, or delegate their jobs upward.
03
Zoom out
An hour that saves 20 minutes a week forever is a great investment.
04
Time mix
The mix of doing vs directing vs thinking changes with department size. Recalculate it as you grow.
How to use it
- Write HVAs the night before. Do the first one before email.
- Teach the team when you are interruptible.
- Owners: thinking time is a customer of the calendar.
