Multitasking is a myth. Busy is a distraction.

That’s nothing new, of course, but it’s important to remember, especially in the new work paradigm. The new work paradigm requires leadership to empower rather than micromanage and to entrust individuals with responsibility, nurturing self-reliance and initiative.

Which makes setting priorities critical. Because if everything is important, then nothing is. Empowerment without clear priorities can be a recipe for chaos, leading to diffused focus and diluted results.

Effective leadership in the new work paradigm creates the vision, sets the standards, enrolls the team, and ensures each member understands their objectives and significance. Teaching and empowering to focus on the important, not just the urgent.

This marriage of empowerment and priority transforms the work environment into an arena of focused impact. A shift from busy to significant.
