139. What you bring to the table is more than always being at the table

About this episode

The episode discusses the importance of protecting time for strategic work over constant availability in the workplace.

Responsiveness is something that has taken over American work culture. Between email, Teams/Slack, and more, there can be an assumption everyone is available at all times. But your value to your company is more than always being available – and is undercut by that approach. Let's talk about how to shift into protecting time for strategic, heads-down work – and remain as responsive as we need to be. Also, enrollment for the 10-week program closes this Wednesday (3/18/26) until September.
