Building A Strong & Sustainable Core
August is a great time to slow down, go deep, learn, plan, and prepare for the hustle of the end of the year. Just like Abraham Lincoln said: “If you give me 8 hours to chop down a tree, I’ll spend 6 hours sharpening my ax,” my goal with this series is to help you sharpen your proverbial organizational ax.
This week, I’ve curated 3 resources to help you build a strong and sustainable organization from the inside-out.
