In this episode of Executiveland, Elizabeth Freedman shares a framework for leaders who want to make 2026 an impactful year for their business. She introduces “The Matters Model,” a simple tool drawn from years of coaching senior leaders, and explains how the most effective executives align their work to what matters most at the enterprise level. Elizabeth breaks down why even high-performing leaders can miss the mark on impact and what to do instead.

Together you’ll explore:

• Why great work isn’t always viewed as high-impact work
• The hidden executive cost of “excellence in isolation”
• How to spot the difference between elevator and balcony thinking
• What erodes trust at the top and how to fix it
• A practical model to focus work and conversations around what matters most
