The ONE Thing

334. How Your Team Can Live The ONE Thing & Help You Achieve More with Sarah Hendricks

Do you ever wonder how much time is wasted in your workplace because a request takes someone away from something more pressing or simply a better use of their time? No one can be expected to know every little detail about the inner workings of a company and its employees – and, with working from home, this is truer now than it’s ever been before.

It might sound silly, but think about it. Let’s say you’ve set time aside to work on your ONE Thing, but then you get a call from your boss. Are you going to finish what you’re doing or drop it in order to be a people-pleaser? Most of you would do the latter. But in all likelihood, only you know the best use of your time within your job because you’re the only person spending as much time doing it.

This sense of trust and freedom to prioritize your workload as you see fit is a staple of our corporate culture at ProduKtive, and it’s something that Sarah Hendricks is still getting used to. It makes sense, but pushing back when people ask you for your time is easier said than done. 

By the end of our conversation, she’s almost a different person, one who sees true value in putting her ONE Thing above all else.

If this corporate culture sounds like something you want for your own business but don’t know how to truly implement, then visit the1thing.com and request a consultation in order to make sure your staff are clear about what matters most and that they’re willing to sometimes say “No.”
