34. 5 Things to Stop Doing as a Leader

In this episode, I discuss 5 Things to Stop Doing as a Leader. The late great management thinker Peter Drucker said: “We spend a lot of time teaching our leaders what to do. We don’t spend enough time teaching them what to stop.” As you write down your new year resolutions, goals, and ideas for growth to strengthen your leadership practices and skills, I suspect Peter Drucker would encourage you to stop doing a few things.

As you listen, pay close attention to the things you should stop doing to reach your personal goals, grow beyond your limit, and make this year your best year ever.

Stop waiting until the time is right
Stop thinking about it
Stop the permanent planning
Stop listening to your excuses
Stop negotiating with your obstacles
