Can you envision being able to leave your business for a month-long vacation? Seems impossible, right? Not if you delegate with clarity and take the time to put the proper systems in place.

In this episode, Layci shares how she is preparing her team to keep the business running while she enjoys a much-deserved Scandinavian adventure with her family. Drawing upon past experiences and some examples of what *not* to do, this episode will equip you with the tools you need to take the vacation and trust that your team can not only survive, but thrive when they are confident in what is expected of them.

Confessions of a Terrible Leader is hosted by Layci Nelson and produced by Mary Skop. Music is by Leif Olsen and Mary Skop from the band "⁠⁠⁠⁠The Number of Months.⁠⁠⁠⁠"

In this episode, you'll get to hear Layci unpack why she supports tracking personal development on company time. Wait; what?? You might be asking why on earth would you take the time to track personal development on company time? This may seem highly counterintuitive at first, but stay with us.

First of all, we're not talking about unpacking the depths of your personal trauma in team meetings. Nor are we talking about spending half the meeting comparing notes on morning routines. But we are talking about...

-Brief check-ins on things like sleep habits

-What we're doing to cultivate mindfulness and joy

-How we're managing stress

All within just a few minutes of checking in with each other.

Layci challenges leaders to consider their workers as whole humans whose personal development directly affects their quality of work. Listen in!
