Develop, Enhance and Demonstrate Your Business Acumen
Starting this week with special content for paying subscribers
Quick Start Business Acumen - Launches 16 March
For the next week and a half, paying subscribers have special access to a Quick Start Business Acumen course.
Here’s a peek at what we’ll cover as you unravel the most important foundational model for understanding your organization and the single most important tool for demonstrating your Business Acumen.
Starting March 16th, paying subscribers receive seven focused articles:
Introduction,
One each on Cash, Growth, Return, Customer/Consumer,
The final summary
and one on Your Positional Purpose.
Each article goes deeper than the overview you read in last week’s article titled:
You will learn what executives really care about, which functions matter most, and how to connect your specific role to each key outcome.
By the end, you’ll be able to answer every question in last week’s quiz with confidence, and more importantly, you’ll be able to use that knowledge in the room where it matters.
All articles are available anytime, but do read before April 6th to be prepared to get the most from your 28 Day Leadership Boost.
28 Day Leadership Boost - Starts 6 April
The Quick Start Business Acumen course is the perfect set up for the 28 Day Leadership Boost that will start in April.
Small daily actions over 28 days make you a more comfortable, confident, credible, and competent leader — no matter your level.
Leadership is using the greatness in you…
To achieve and sustain extraordinary outcomes…
By engaging the greatness in others.
Here’s how it works:
Each day you receive a prompt — your leadership focus for the day — drawn from business savvy, engaging others, or your personal greatness.
A daily inspiration enriches the challenge. Exclusive course content instructs and engages.
A personal journal lets you document and review your progress. The investment: 5 to 15 minutes a day.
I know how easy it is to get trapped in the hamster wheel of activity — buried under an endless to-do list, losing sight of the bigger picture. As CEO of Leading Women, I was falling into that trap myself. I didn’t have a hierarchy above me pushing for results, but I had people counting on me for their livelihoods.
When I learned to use my leadership definition to give each day a clear focus, it became easier to set priorities, distinguish what was essential from what was merely easy, and keep my eyes on what mattered. My firm grew 1,400% in six years.
Unlike me, you don’t have to figure this out for yourself.
“Every day I use the 28 Day Leadership Boost — with pen and paper. The results I achieved across Europe? Susan, that’s for us to celebrate together.”
