This week is our first “coaching” call with Principal Eric Makelky. We jump on a zoom call, and hit record. You get to hear it.
In this episode, Eric shares how, a month into school, he’s getting pulled in all directions and can’t get focused on doing what needs to be done! Have you ever felt that way? I know I have!
He’s showing up late to meetings, getting too many todos, and just feels like he’s constantly drinking from a firehose!
We talk about three distinct strategies in this episode:
Strategy 1: add 15–30 minutes to however long you think each meeting will be.
Instead of scheduling an hour meeting, give yourself extra time. This intentionally reduces the amount of meetings you can have, prevents you from getting overbooked, and makes things better.
