The busiest time of the year has officially begun. And as much as most of us love this season, it can become overwhelming if you aren’t able to prepare adequately. 🎅 It might feel like a race to accomplish your goals, have everything neat for next year, and do your best to have a good time. Take a deep breath and dedicate some time in your calendar to plan. It won’t be a waste of your time, in fact, you’ll be grateful you did this later. Here are 5 things you might want to consider for the next two months: ✅ Forecast and plan ahead Try doing this schedule with your executive assistant, and delegate any tasks or to-dos from this planning. ✅Leverage Seasonal Marketing Use your marketing assistant or team wisely. This is the season to exploit their creativity, meet with them, and listen to any interesting ideas they could have. ✅Collect Pending Invoices End your year with clean numbers, your billing clerk must focus on having reports ready and they must make it a priority to collect any pending money from the year. ✅Prepare End-of-Year Gifts Show appreciation to clients, team members, or connections. Delegate this task to a happiness coordinator, and let them know a budget and gift ideas for each group. ✅Celebrate with your Team Schedule your fun moments too! This year has been a journey and you should celebrate your wins to fire up the spirit for the upcoming new season. You don’t have to go through all of this by yourself, delegation will become your best friend. And if you’re still thinking about hiring an assistant. It could be the perfect way to end your year. 🎇 What are you looking forward to the most in the next two months? Let me know in the comments 😊 ---------------------- 🔔 Hit my Bell for weekly tips on law firm staffing, delegation, and leadership. 🌎 Visit Get Staffed Up for more information on how to delegate your way to FREEDOM! #lawfirm #lawyers #leadership #getstaffedup #virtualassistants

Chiefs of Staff, FOEs are King Makers. When I first became a Founder’s Office Executive, I thought my job was just to support the founder. But I quickly realized it’s much more than that. It’s about being the founder’s right hand, understanding the vision, and helping turn ideas into action. It’s about managing projects, solving problems on the fly, and ensuring goals are aligned and well-planned. It’s about facing harsh realities, having difficult conversations, and knowing when to let go of ideas. One of my biggest learnings was how much you can impact the success of a company from this role. You get to see the big picture, connect the dots, and ensure that the founder’s vision is realized. You are in the room where decisions are made, and you have the opportunity to shape the future of the company. Your words matter. Founder’s Office Execs work behind the scenes, but their contribution is vital. The expectations are through the roof - to make the impossible possible.

Nothing crazy for my post today… just gratitude! Spent the day meeting with clients/candidates I’ve built good relationships with over the years and boy does it get me fired up about what we’re building at SkyWater Search Partners Chicago. I truly believe we do it different. If you are a hiring leader or candidate and want to find out what “different” means… well, you know what to do.

SORRY, but if our values don’t align, we will not be working together. That should be a premise when family businesses enter the process of hiring managers to run their company. Although it may be necessary to hire managers externally, the owning family must make sure that the right candidate has the proper competencies AND is completely committed to the values on which the company is founded. Otherwise, the company risks losing its very foundation, its direction, and its ‘why’ once the newly hired managers put their hands on the steering wheel. Some owning families will find that their core values have never been put into words. Maybe those values have been unspoken – or perhaps the family members never had a common understanding of them to begin with. Given that situation, the family should view the external hiring of managers as an opportunity. An opportunity to get clear on company values before hiring someone to lead the company without having been a part of the owning family. (This and a series of other posts represent main points from conversations between Eva Fischer Hansen and I). #familybusiness #businessvalues #familyenterprise

One sure way to build a better culture? Celebrate the lineman! When a touchdown pass is thrown in a football game, the quarterback and the receiver celebrate with one of those mid-air body bumps and everyone cheers. The connection between these star players creates excitement and puts points on the board. But none of that could have happened without the lineman blocking the oncoming defenders. Or what about the other receivers? They ran routes to other parts of the field to distract the defense. And what about the running back who got smashed when he pretended to receive a handoff and fell to the ground as the ball hurled towards the end zone? Do you recognize the contribution of the lineman (and the others) in this story? Of course. Then why don’t you do the same at work? We put salespeople on a pedestal and cheer as the executives perform a mid-air body bump with the sales rep when more points are put on the board. It's exciting, and it is a critical part of the company’s growth. But what about the lineman? What about the receiver running a decoy route? Do we celebrate that our client issues are being addressed efficiently and friendly behind the scenes? Do we high-five the accounts payable department for getting vendor checks out in a timely manner? Or do we run right by the finance, legal, HR, and marketing departments on our way to hug the salesperson who keeps closing deals and winning games while everyone else just “does their job”? Change your culture for the better. Celebrate the lineman. #companyculture #undividedlife
