Phil’s Faves for March

Three more ‘Phil’s Faves’ – simple concepts you’d hear often in one of my training or coaching sessions.

  1. Do what you love and love what you do. All the rest is just details.
  1. Plan your work, then work your plan.
  1. Project uncommon courtesy with every outgoing phone call by saying these five magic words within the first 10 seconds – ‘Is this a good time?’

 

 

Phil’s Faves for January

Let’s also kick 2019 off by periodically reviewing ‘Phil’s Faves’ – some of the best practices I regularly share in my workshops: If you were in the room where it happened, you might have heard me say:

  • Everything you write or say at work you should write on purpose and for a purpose.
  • Err on the side of over-communicating important messages to increase your probability of success.
  • The only thing worse than a bad workplace meeting is a great meeting that didn’t need to be a meeting. It should have been an email, memo, phone call or face-to-face conversation.
