Episode card for The Servant Leadership Podcast

Tired of chasing work life balance and never getting there? Ed Schenkein, the CPA some clients call the Zen CPA, says a teeter totter is never balanced, so he trades it for a pie with a slice for every role you carry. In this Leadership Development Day 2021 talk, he shows leaders how to spend less time, grow smarter, and move from success to fulfillment.

In this conversation: - Why Ed sees your life as a pie, with slices for health, family, partner, leader and advisor, instead of a balance to chase - How to audit a 50 hour week, strip out 20 hours you do not want or should not be doing, and put more time into your strengths - What a young rabbi taught Ed about shoring up weaknesses so you can spend more time where you shine - Why growth that costs you 20 percent more of your time is a bad model, and what Ed tells young leaders about being their authentic selves
