Description

Jason shares two game-changing observations: a cohesive group of senior superintendents operating as a wolf pack instead of lone wolves, and the concept of constraining time to drive effectiveness. He reads from Peter Kiewit's 1981 document on maintaining good health as essential for leadership. Main focus is reducing wasted hours and using freed time for continuous improvement and career advancement.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• Wolf pack vs lone wolves: Supers who text, call, share solutions, have healthy conflict dominate
• Good health essential: Peter Kiewit says excess weight and lack of self-discipline limit effectiveness
• Constrain time to 55 hours: Use saved time for continuous improvement not more mundane work
• One-piece flow stops context switching: Do report immediately after visit, saves 30 to 60 minutes
• Stop unnecessary work: Eliminate reports nobody reads, 17 entry field forms, duplicate data transfers
• Leader standard work non-negotiable: Time block weekly, protect 20 percent that brings 80 percent return

Working excessive hours masks ineffectiveness with wasted time, constraint forces hard questions about what advances you and company.
