What should you be working on? Do you ever question whether you and your team are working on the projects that matter, with purpose & impact?
When you are looking to advance your career or in a leadership role, it can be unclear what is expected from you.
We move to from the detail as a 'doer' with a very prescriptive role where your outputs are clear. Into space where you need to think bigger, more strategic and have the full picture in mind.
This can be both the exciting challenge you are ready for and the fear-inducing factor that leads up to 40% of leaders fail in the first 18months.
In this episode, I want to give you clarity on how you define 'What should I be working on?'
So that you know where to focus your energies, which as we all know can be easily overwhelmed by urgent busy work. The noise that comes at us from all angles, the stakeholders, the team, the systems and more.
Asking these questions will ensure you reduce the 'busy' work that not really having an impact.
Stop wondering why you are not getting the recognition your hard work deserves.
Becoming stressed yet unfulfilled by not doing the amazing projects that matter and give your work purpose.
In this episode, I talk about the questions you need to ask.
The Top 2 to figuring out How you figure out what to work on.
1. What are the business goals over the next 1-5 years?
2. What can I do / my team do to support you (the business leader)?
Then collate, do your homework
Ask who I can learn more about these areas from.
Make proposals
Review your planned work and pipeline frequently with these leaders for a steer.
