SHAPING LEADERS

Episode 172: If You’re Too Busy to Lead Well… This Is For You!

​

Let’s face it—most leaders aren’t lacking in work ethic. But somewhere between the back-to-back meetings, never-ending to-do lists, and inbox overload… true leadership gets lost.

​

In this episode of The Today Counts Show, Jim, Winston, and friend of the podcast, Greyson Hanna get real about the hidden cost of being too busy. They unpack why being constantly occupied doesn’t mean you’re being effective—and how to shift from surviving your schedule to actually leading with clarity and purpose.

​

You’ll discover:

  • The difference between activity and effectiveness
  • How to identify what really matters each day
  • The habits and mindset of time-wise leaders
  • Practical tools to take control of your calendar and your calling

​

🎯 If your calendar is full but your leadership feels empty, this conversation is for you.
