CEOs: Own Your Day

Most leaders don't lose their day at noon. They lose it at 6:30 in the morning, the moment they pick up their phone and spend the rest of the day reacting to whoever shouts the loudest. A leader who's constantly reacting isn't leading. They're just responding. In this episode, Shawn introduces the Spartan Day, the morning framework he's spent nearly a decade building with leaders as part of the Killer Team Operating System. He walks through his own routine hour by hour, explains why it's time to retire the open-door policy, and shows why the best gift you can give your team isn't your availability. It's good stewardship of your time. If your day keeps getting away from you before it even starts, this one's for you. Grab the free Episode Playbook here.
