RaderCo - Weekender Snapshot


Milestone Unlocked: Manuscript Sent!

Last week, I hit send on my book manuscript, kicking it over to the designer for the final polish. A book’s never truly “done” (I’m on version four of Work Well. Play More!), but it’s officially in the formatting pipeline!

Here’s what’s next: cover design, uploading to Amazon, launch team building, marketing strategy, and preparing Reclaim Your Workday Live for teams that want hands-on guidance while reading.

Walking-Talkie: From a birthday stroll with my stylist-bestie Michelle (designer of my speaker reel suit!), a trip to Cary Park (if you're local to the Raleigh-Durham area, you must visit) to 14 miles with my visiting mom, I logged some serious steps. I even shared this tip with a client looking to exercise more: schedule walking meetings! We found four upcoming meetings she can take on foot and added a new habit: kicking off phone calls with a 10-minute walk. For the record, I rarely take a social call without pacing the neighborhood—even delaying calls a day if it's raining.

Meeting Makeovers: Meetings are in the spotlight. This quarter, I’m working with Vertex Pharmaceuticals, RTI International, and Horizon Farm Credit to tackle what employees say is their most unproductive time. After a single laser coaching session, one client sent me a fantastic update on their productivity gains.

Media & Speaking Highlights: This week, I spoke virtually to over 500 people about Working Well and Managing Remotely and recorded four podcast interviews about the new book. Power Tip: Just because virtual meetings have unlimited “seats” doesn’t mean we should fill them with people. Not every decision has to be a consensus.

Your Input Needed: It's time for our annual survey on what you like to see in the Weekender Snapshot. Please click this link for a short survey by 5:00pm on November 5 and be entered to win a copy of my new book, Reclaim Your Workday.

Celebrations Ahead: When you get this, I’ll be on my way to celebrate Lisa’s third anniversary as RaderCo’s Client Concierge with her first sensory deprivation tank experience. Tomorrow’s another walkie-talkie with a friend and then a Halloween fundraiser with Jack the Radio! Check out their newly released video here.

On with the Weekender!
