Could a framework change the way you think about your time, your strengths, or your team? In this episode, Helen and Sarah borrow brilliance from three tried-and-tested strategic models, and put them to the test with AI prompts, Post-it® Big Notes, and a live coaching conversation to see how useful they actually are.
From a classic time management matrix to a strengths development tool to a team effectiveness framework that’s been around since the 70s, this episode is brought to you in partnership with Post-it® Brand. If today’s episode sparked an idea, stick it down, find out where to buy Post-it® products.
