Hot take: The best leaders don’t manage time. They manage outcomes.
Entrepreneur Codie Sanchez recently shared that if someone on her team finishes their work in less than 40 hours, she doesn’t micromanage the rest of their time. They can go live their life. Because what matters is the work getting done, not looking busy.
It’s a simple idea, but a powerful one: Trust people to do great work, and give them the autonomy to do it well.
The result?
More ownership.
More creativity.
And usually better work.
💬 Do you think more companies should focus on results over hours?
When Cher speaks, you listen.
In conversation with @lisalingstagram at the Virtual National Conference for Women, Cher reflected on a life and career defined not by “reinvention,” but by something much simpler: being unapologetically herself.
She talked about pushing forward even when things didn’t work out, trusting her instincts, and refusing to let other people define who she was allowed to become.
And she shared the wisdom that stayed with her from her mother — the reminder that confidence and resilience are choices we make again and again.
Sometimes success isn’t about changing who you are.
Sometimes it’s about having the courage to be exactly who you are — consistently and out loud.
