A business owner should schedule a four-week fully disconnected vacation 12 to 18 months ahead. Cutting all ties forces your team to run the company without you, which the speaker calls the single most effective way to build stronger, more resilient operations.
What about bringing more order and efficiency to your organization? How do you do it? You can do it in one simple step. You can do it today if this is the weakest link in your organization. But this may give you the, the scare of a lifetime. It takes about 3 minutes to do it. Go into your calendar, scroll forward at least 1 year. You can go up to 18 months, but no further out. Find a 4-week block. Block out all 4 consecutive weeks for a vacation from your business. A 4-week vacation. If you take 4 weeks with no physical connection to your business, a full digital disconnect. Your business has to operate efficiently without you. And this is the only way I've been able, with all the companies I've ever worked with, to force that.
