À propos de cet audio
In this episode of "Built Simple", I share a personal story from a day ice skating with three of my kids and how it mirrors the challenges of working with insurance agents. My oldest child, a confident skater, tempted me to focus on fun, while my middle child needed occasional help, and my youngest required constant support to stay upright. This experience sparked a realization about prioritization: just like on the ice, we can’t only focus on the top performers—those “easy wins”—at the expense of the team members who need guidance most.
Drawing parallels to managing agents, I explore how to balance attention between rockstar performers, steady-but-wobbly middle players, and struggling newbies. The bigger lesson? Tackling the hardest tasks first—whether it’s coaching a rookie agent or diving into a tough project—sets the stage for long-term success, rather than procrastinating with quick fixes. Tune in for a practical takeaway to rethink your focus, ensuring your whole “rink”—team or task list—moves forward together.
