Turning points
extremely rewarding experience
I organise my waking moments in chunks, usually going by a single week at a time. For me, having work-life balance is important, and I always make it a point to prioritise and have time for family, friends and myself. I believe a person should endeavour to have balanced time for family, work, networking, and personal quiet and reflective moments.
Work will never be done. So help yourself and learn to prioritise. Find very smart subordinates and delegate your work.
I have been very blessed and fortunate not to have encountered many particularly challenging situations. If I did, it was more of the wrong job fit and scope of work. These were transitory periods so I made sure they didn’t last too long.

Not everyone gets a chance to talk frequently with senior leaders. Hearing a strategic, higher-level perspective on the company, industry and growth in the market from the CEO, helps employees see they’re part of something larger and think beyond their day-to-day activities. It also gives the team a chance to polish how they frame questions and how they talk about their own work.
