When companies appoint two people to share a leadership role, they typically invest time explaining and justifying the dual structure when it’s launched — but they neglect to continue the work of making people understand how the two leaders are working together.

Over the years, I have seen admin staff leave with little notice and staff who gave notice but did not actually work through it.

A popular analogy compares our goals to rocks in a jar: put the big rocks (your most valued goals) in the jar first, or else the smaller (less important) rocks will take up all the space. But goals aren’t rocks; in fact, they’re more like balls of soft clay that require molding as much as prioritizing. To better mold your goals to your stage in life and what’s important to you, work through a four-step process that breaks your goals into values and definitions of success.

The truth is that engagement and enablement is more important than ever, but how we do it is the critical differentiator for many organizations.
