The CEO’s Guide to Energy Management: Lead with Clarity and Resilience Great leadership isn’t just about managing time—it’s about managing energy. As a CEO, your ability to focus, stay resilient, and make effective decisions is directly tied to how well you sustain your energy. One thing I’ve noticed with CEOs and executives is that they often prioritize time management but overlook energy management. Yet, neglecting energy can lead to declining momentum, poor decision-making, and lower team morale. The Consequences of Energy Depletion When your energy is depleted, productivity drops, and opportunities slip away. However, with the right strategies, you can protect and maximize your energy, ensuring that you lead with strength and clarity. 3 Powerful Energy Management Strategies for CEOs 1. Start Your Day with Purpose Dedicate time to energizing rituals, such as meditation, light exercise, or reviewing your priorities. This helps set a focused and productive tone for the day ahead. 2. Take Energy-Boosting Breaks Short breaks aren’t just nice—they’re necessary. A quick walk, deep breathing exercises, or stepping away from screens can recharge your mental and physical energy, allowing you to sustain focus throughout the day. 3. Nourish Your Body, Fuel Your Mind Maintain consistent energy levels by eating whole, nutritious foods, staying hydrated, and incorporating regular movement into your routine. When you fuel your body properly, your mind performs at its best. By implementing these strategies, you can stay energized, lead with clarity, and avoid the pitfalls of burnout.

She wrote about the experiences of Black people in the American South with honesty and humor, giving voice to the marginalized and challenging prevailing stereotypes.

Her unwavering belief in herself and her work allowed her to overcome countless obstacles and leave a lasting legacy.
