Today is Christmas.
Before we talk about execution, numbers, or leadership metrics again, I want to pause with you—because the most important leadership you do isn’t just what you build at work.
It’s the wake you leave at home.
Around the table.
In the quiet moments no one posts about.
If there’s one gift leaders can give today, it’s presence.
Make the first 30 seconds each person has with you today the best 30 seconds of their day.
No correcting.
No fixing.
No planning.
Just connection.
Because long after the gifts are opened and put away, what your family will remember is how you made them feel.
So today, lower your shoulders.
Soften your breath.
Let gratitude replace urgency—just for today.
The work will be there tomorrow.
Standards still matter.
Execution still counts.
But today, choose connection.
From my family to yours—Merry Christmas.
