It is important to first of all be a disciplined person. You have to lead yourself so that you can lead others. Marion Mwangi, managing director at BOC gases explains that she has a yearly plan, a monthly plan, a weekly plan and then a daily plan. She reviews the daily plan every morning and does everything as planned. Our lives can get complicated so if you do not plan some things then you are probably not going to do them.

A business should have a mission, vision and values. Then those will help set the plan and the goals. If you are someone who likes writing then put the plan on paper, and if not, then these days there are apps that help you put things in order.

Plans are prone to changes. No one thought that a pandemic would hit this year; so many plans had to be put on hold. But what if the pandemic doesn’t go away, we still have to continue succeeding. So pick out your notes books or phones and come up with plans. Plan your day like your life depends on it because all you have is time.

“Every plan is as good as its execution”, concludes Marion. It is very possible to achieve 10x growth especially if you stalk good habits on good habits.

Transformational leadership is really in the things that you do every day.
