Why aren’t more leaders already Thoughtfully Ruthless®?

Leaders often focus on just managing their time. They forget to be selfish with how they maintain their energy levels, and how they ruthlessly manage their resources. They worry too much about how they’re viewed, they try to be too thoughtful or too ruthless, and they fail to define, understand, and live by what makes them uniquely thoughtfully ruthless®. Leaders are not imperturbable. They let distractions, small and large, knock them off course. They don’t know how to get back on track and they don’t where to go for help.

"As an expert in helping executives drive profit from change, I knew that it was time to change my own approach to business when I met Val Wright. At the time I asked her to mentor me, despite having a successful consulting practice, I was very scattered, throwing my time at many different activities without much success or lasting impact. I knew I could achieve so much more, but had no idea how to accomplish that. Using her Thoughtfully Ruthless approach, she focused my attention on my most important goals and began paring away everything that was holding me back. In six months I completely changed my approach to work, saved over twenty hours of time each month, successfully achieved multiple six-figure consulting projects and built a pipeline with new, profitable clients! My life satisfaction is through the roof! Val told me I was sitting on a gold mine of opportunity; in just five months I am already having my most successful year of consulting and I’m just getting started."
