I had the great fortune of working with a manufacturing team recently to talk about team health and strategy. Both of these facets of a team are incredibly important. As people get to know, trust and respect each other more, they are better able to do the heavy lifting of putting issues on the table in the service of the betterment of the team, department and overall company.
The CEO and The Coach Part 3: on Resilience
On this episode of the Focus Coach podcast. I interview Ken Abbott, President of ABTech Manufacturing in Fitzwilliam, NH about the notion of resilience and how that has manifested in this economic COVID downturn as well as through an injury he sustained while riding his mountain bike. We talk about what tools have helped him recover from these downturns and the current state of his life and business.
The Unintentional and Intentional CEO
Taking Things Personally
If you are like most people that I know you have TONS going on. Normal day to day operation work, normal family routine tasks like making dinner, volunteer work that you do, and of course projects! A project is defined as something that is not achieved by one to-d, and is pushing the borders of your growth and development. It is also finite, meaning it will be something that gets accomplished and not ongoing. When we do project based work, either alone or with another person or team, we learn and progress ourselves and the organization/family unit.
