Coach for performance: run 1-on-1s and quarterly reviews that skyrocket engagement
Drive accountability: set OKRs, delegate effectively, and eliminate “shadow work”
Give feedback that sticks: use SBI/SBIR and feed-forward models to spark growth, not defensiveness
Build psychological safety: foster open dialogue so innovation and dissent thrive side-by-side
Navigate remote & hybrid teams: keep culture, clarity, and connection strong from anywhere
Master time & priority management: protect focus for you and your people in meeting-heavy weeks
Recruit and retain A-players: craft hiring loops and onboarding plans that reduce churn
