Listen Later

In Part Two of Clint’s conversation with Juliet Funt, author of “A Minute to Think” and Founder & CEO at JFG (Juliet Funt Group), they talk about the cultural forces that are overwhelming today’s workplaces. Juliet shares her research on the “thieves of time” and how high performers can reclaim their clarity and creativity by using simple tools like wedges, white space, and hallway time. The two also discuss how burnout manifests in modern organizations, how asynchronous communication is evolving, and why not all conversations belong in a digital frame. This is the second part of a two-part conversation. 
Topics Covered:

  • The four “thieves of time”: drive, excellence, information, and activity
  • Why even good habits can become toxic when left unchecked
  • How to spot analysis paralysis in project teams
  • The wedge: a practical tool for inserting white space into your day
  • Burnout 101: how to recognize, respond, and recover
  • The myth of digital tools as a cure-all for burnout
  • Why 3D conversations don’t belong in 2D communication tools
  • The three types of leaders and how white space benefits all of them
  • Juliet’s favorite daily leadership principle: “Control or growth; pick one.”
