The Double Win

The Business Case for Sabbaticals


Listen Later

You’re running on empty without much gas left in the tank. You can see your performance slipping and your creativity dwindling. But how can you take time off when there’s so much to do? Won’t you just regret it when you come back to hundreds of emails in your inbox?

In this episode, Michael talks with his executive assistant, Jim, and the producer of Lead to Win, Nick, about the vital importance of unplugging. They discuss the most popular benefit at Michael Hyatt & Company—sabbaticals—and show you why they’re necessary and how to plan them so that you come back to work refreshed, energized, and ready to level up your game.

In this episode, you’ll discover—

  • Why stress and tension are the enemies of performance
  • What you can do now if you can’t take a sabbatical right away
  • How to plan and prepare for being away from work
  • Michael’s out-of-office template that sets you up for a stress-less return
