The blog
Short methods, tested in real teams, to try on Monday.
Delegating without taking it all back
You delegate, then take back control at the first deviation. A simple five-level scale to say clearly what you are handing over.
The 25-minute rule
A one-hour meeting almost never contains an hour of work. Here is how to bring it down to twenty-five minutes without losing anything.
The one-page memo
Half of all meetings are held to make a decision that could be made in writing, in ten minutes of reading. Here is how.
Why this blog
Each article describes a method I use with my clients: the 25-minute rule, the one-page memo, the delegation scale. They have one thing in common: you can try them in a week, with no tools and no budget, and their effects can be measured.
If you try one in your team, write to me and tell me what worked, and what met resistance. The best feedback shapes the next articles.
A new article comes out every month, on the first Tuesday. It takes five minutes to read and always ends with an exercise to do with your team that week, to turn the idea into practice.
