If the quality of a podcast directly correlates with the practical value that you get from it, then I think today's episode might be the best one I've released so far. My guest is Marc Effron, the author of Eight Steps to High Performance: Focus On What You Can Change (Ignore the Rest).We had a fantastic conversation in which we discussed the importance of big goals., what changes managers need to make now that they're working with remote teams, and the difference between evidence-based advice and management fads.He also offered some incredibly useful insights about how to build up a network from scratch and how to keep your connections engaged by LinkedIn and by email. We also discussed the connection between physical health and performance. As you'll hear, there isn't much evidence to prove the link, but one vitally important thing is a good night's sleep.LINKS: Eight Steps to High Performance: Focus On What You Can Change (Ignore the Rest)Marc's LinkedIn profileFuture Work/Life newsletterFuture work/life website Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
