My name is Rhett Donovan. I am a business leadership coach and life coach dedicated to advancing your career and achieving life balance. I act as a mirror to help you resolve issues, envision your future, and reach the C-suite if that is your goal.
You Have About 5,475 Days to Reach the Top
If you are a senior manager aged 33, you have approximately 5,475 days, including weekends, to prepare and position yourself for the C-suite by age 48. This is your window to learn and apply the techniques that will elevate your career.
Just as athletes have coaches, senior managers need guidance to master the skills necessary for advancement. If you feel isolated with no one to bounce ideas off, and your home life may not be the place for work-related discussions, a coach can offer the support you need.
Key Qualities of a Serious Business Leader
Emotional intelligence and empathy are crucial and can be developed. Effective leaders adapt their style to the situation, using their emotional intelligence to lead forcefully, gently guide, or praise their team. The ideal ratio of praise to criticism is five to one, reinforcing positive workplace relationships.
Leaders are defined by their team’s perception of them, not their self-view. Exceptional leaders thrive on positive feedback and foster a culture of constructive, not hurtful, comments. Feedback should feel like a gift and be a two-way street, contributing to team growth and cohesion.
Top executives often start board meetings by checking in on personal lives to build team bonds.
