Perfect week has all meetings and calls booked in 1-2 days, its a mix of strategy and hands-on.

Tax , and Compliance review with a review of our planned sales visits - Tuesday - Begin sales visits w/ marketing campaigns planning - Wednesday - Deliveries & Content Marketing Planning - Thursday - Digital Marketing Day (Writing, Social Media, Ads) - Friday - Makeup Day for anything & Business Recap Reporting

My ideal week would be a mix of deep focus with high-energy collaboration. I’d start with half-day blocks for the more strategic work and shaping priorities without interruptions. I love collaborative working around a whiteboard generating ideas and solving problems, so would definitely incorporate some of those sessions in to the week, alongside walking 1:1s with my direct reports (I find this helps get the conversation flowing and focussed on each other). I like the feeling of getting an initiative over the line and implemented so moving from planning to delivery throughout a week is a great motivator. Definitely would have a team social and regular exercise to balance out the work and sitting at a desk (although I do have a standing desk and walking pad at home!). I’d wrap up on Friday by reviewing outcomes and planning the next sprint, leaving with a clear head and a sense of progress.

ZERO admin, all big thinking! I love sinking my teeth into big strategies and churn out pathways for my teams to pursue and get them some wins.

Agree a clear plan for the week. Tackle a few key issues to fix/automate/scale/deliver them. Work with teams as much as possible and work with management to plan/think about the strategy (they have to all line up!). Take a step back to see if we're missing anything.. Then later in the week be honest about what worked/ what didn't (and why/whare are the metrics telling us). Meet in person to have a nice end of week celebration with team / end the week on a positive.
