RaderCo - Weekender Snapshot
Happy New Year!We're back in business after two weeks off from email and meetings. Before we left, my mind was blown at the Certified Speaking Professional® Summit. After a 2.5-day mastermind, I came home with the project of writing another book aimed at helping companies move away from an always-on culture. I'll start working on it in Q2 after TEDxNCSU. While the summit was intense, we also had some fun. Speaking of books...I was delighted to see my book mentioned by the Better Gift Coach as a way to find time-saving methods for project work. I always look forward to end-of-the-year reflection dates with my husband, two business peers, and RaderCo Concierge Lisa. I also got vulnerable, shared them with our Powered Path members, and gave a sneak peek into our priorities and some changes for this year. One update is a quarterly Voxer Day to Ask Me Anything as a membership perk!
I am honored to be part of the National Small Business Association Leadership Council on the Health and Human Resources Committee! The NSBA is the nation's oldest small-business non-partisan advocacy organization. I'll be working with them to promote the interests of small businesses to our elected representatives. I recently presented to the super hospitable National Speaker Association St. Louis chapter on Super Sexy Speaker Systems and the National Association of Women Business Owners in Charlotte on how to put out the dumpster fire, otherwise known as their inbox. Lastly, we're changing our packages and pricing for all team training starting February 1. Any agreements signed by January 31 get the current rates, so if you've been on the fence and are ready to extinguish email, make meetings matter, or remove distractions, sign up for a Connection Call: https://raderco.as.me/speaker.
When you get this, I'll be getting a mammogram (shocked you a little, didn't I?). Consider this a friendly RaderCo PSA to schedule your mammogram, colonoscopy, skin cancer screening, or annual physical. Don't delay - prioritize your health today! On with the Weekender! P.S. Get the ultimate productivity course and tool to start 2024 off with a bang! Check out our Powered Path Program. |

Mountains, karaoke, and the Hope Diamond Last week, Kevin and I joined my parents, siblings, and two nieces in Asheville, North Carolina, one of my favorite cities in the country, for our first family vacation since I was a kid. We hiked Catawba Falls with my mom (which included 535 steep steps), roasted s'mores, sang karaoke (for the record, "Islands in the Stream" and "Blame It on the Rain" are much harder than they sound...), played games, and took a ghost tour. Did you know the Hope...
Two weeks, 1,300 people, and one manager who called herself out. The last two weeks were full ones. I had the privilege of working with Delta Air Lines for the fourth time. (Bring on the Biscoff cookies!) The topic was Reclaim Your Workday, and one moment stood out. A manager realized mid-session that she was the problem for her direct reports. Interrupting them, going to their desk, stealing their focus. She said it out loud. In front of her direct report. I applauded her for it. Recognizing...
Notifications aren't on to help you be more productive. They're on to get you to use that tool more. Every alert triggers a dopamine response, your brain starts to like it, and so you leave them all on because that's the default. The default is not a strategy. Why it matters: Every notification, even ignored ones, is a microdecision that contributes to decision fatigue Being reactive feels like responsiveness. It isn't. Your clients and your team feel the difference. Badges, alerts, and...
