Are You Focused on the Clock or Your Contribution? | Thoughts from Kevin

Too often, we measure our days by how much we get done—instead of by how much we contribute.

In this episode, I'm sharing an idea that's stuck with me since a conversation years ago with Lisa O'Dell. She asked a simple but powerful question: Are you thinking about the clock or your contribution?

That question changed how I think about productivity, focus, and leadership. It's not about racing the clock or checking off boxes—it's about doing the few things that truly move the needle.

Join me as I explore how to:

• Shift from busyness to meaningful accomplishment

• Focus on what truly matters to your team and organization

• Use a simple daily question to clarify your priorities

If you'd like to help your team become more productive in ways that really matter, we've curated practical tools, videos, and learning resources to help you do just that.
