It's really hard for built elite leaders to go slow.
It's hard to give people just a little bit.
But it's true, you know, you'll always.
Get more out of your team when you go slower, when you go back.
In order to go forwards. But when it comes to information, it comes to your communication style. You know, being able to put what Chet likes to say is put things.
Down the low cookie shop, the cookie jar on the low shelf so that everybody can come and grab one.
And I think there's something to be said about communicating in a way that.
Speaks to the least sophisticated person. And that doesn't mean the dumbest person.
It just means that if you have a brand new employee that just started versus all your veterans who've been there.
For years, that person's the least sophisticated.
Person regarding the information because they've never heard it before. And so that you have to learn and adopt this way of communicating with.
People, that you're always keeping it simple and you're always making sure that no.
Matter who you're talking to that they understand. And one of the ways to do that is to give less, less information and then build that discipline and that.
Habit to have people play it back, have people tell you what they're thinking.
One of the best ways to do.
This with your team is to have them write things down.
And.
It'S just a hard discipline to do when you're a leader and you're.
Going fast and you got a million.
Things on your mind and you feel.
Like you should be able to just share a lot of information with people because you only get them for a certain amount of time at a meeting.
But you know, it's just over sensory overload and all it does is more.
Harm and it creates confusion, chaos and mixed messages. And so you got to be really.
Careful when you're communicating and sending messages to your team. Just give them a little bit. And when you want them to learn something that's really important, then just focus on just that.
And don't try to sandwich it in with a bunch of other things just because you got everybody together.
There's lots of different ways that you.
Can communicate as a leader. And timing has a lot to do with that.
And executing how you do it is a nuance.
So you're, you gotta pay attention, you.
Gotta be on top of that. And you gotta embrace the curse of.
Knowledge that you don't know what it's.
Like to not remember.
You don't know what it's like to.
Be sitting out in the crowd, having the leader talk to you because you've been the leader for so long.
So don't, don't forget that.
And you always get more back, you know, just like the daily discipline that you're reading. It's just, you'll get more back when you can do that. And so there's just a lot to be said about sending less and getting more.
