Have you ever worked in a place where everyone is ridiculously busy?
Layers upon layers of meetings. Dropping out of meetings to attend other meetings. Sprinting from one thing to the next.
How do you break the cycle of busyness?

Mantra: I don’t have to be in everything all the time.
Prioritise ruthlessly on where you can make the most impact and let the rest go :)
I do think at an organisational level it is often the inability to really decide on, and stick to, priorities - being unwilling to make tough trade offs & instead ending up with an endless list of 'priorities'.
This reminds me of something Tom Loosemore posted the other day about holding your nerve - keeping focus on the right thing, sticking to it.
