Stop Working Weekends and Build Systems That Work Monday-Friday

​You didn't become an academic leader to live in your inbox.
Yet here you are: working nights and weekends, answering "quick questions," watching strategic work slip to someday.
Sound familiar?

Research from Harvard Business School shows busyness signals importance—and academic culture expects you to be constantly available. Add Cal Newport's finding that your brain craves the dopamine hit from quick wins, and you're trapped in reactive mode instead of strategic leadership.

Working harder can't fix what's systemically broken.

Seats are limited.
In this 60-minute workshop, you'll discover:

• ​Why everything flows to your desk—and how to redirect decisions so your team grows stronger

• ​Why boundaries feel impossible in academic culture—and the framework that protects your capacity without damaging relationships

• ​Why strategic work always waits—and how to redesign your week so it happens during business hours
