Leader Standard Work 101: The System That Keeps You Organized, Focused & Out of the Weeds
If you feel overwhelmed, reactive, or constantly juggling tasks, this episode of the Get Organized at Work podcast is for you. Today, in Day 2 of our 12 Days of Leadership series, we’re breaking down Leader Standard Work (LSW) — the structure, systems, and routines that help leaders stay organized, focused, and strategic no matter how busy things get.
Inside this episode, you’ll learn:
What Leader Standard Work really is (and what it’s not)
How LSW helps you shift from reactive to proactive leadership
The core daily, weekly, and monthly routines that reduce chaos
How to stop getting lost in your to-do list and start leading with clarity
How LSW supports delegation, prioritization, and decision-making
Why consistency is the ultimate leadership superpower
How this system helps new leaders, managers, directors, and multi-site roles stay on top of things
Real examples from healthcare + operations leadership
Whether you're a newly promoted manager, a multi-site leader juggling competing priorities, or someone who just wants to stop drowning in tasks, this episode will help you build the predictable structure you’ve been craving.
