Is your organization stuck in a constant state of crisis, where everything feels like an urgent, must-fix-now situation?

As a leader, cutting through that noise is key to prioritizing and aligning your team’s efforts to focus on what really matters.

In this episode, Isaac Mitchell, VP of Operational Excellence at Ballad Health System, shares his experience leading through Hurricane Helene and how he's fostering an organizational culture of continuous improvement and operational excellence.

Isaac shares how his leadership journey—from engineer at Toyota to executive in healthcare—shaped his approach to real crises. He discusses how understanding purpose—his own, his team’s, and the organization’s—helps him distinguish between what’s urgent and what’s truly important.

By focusing on what matters, you can create the impact you’re striving for. To me, that’s what living with intention is—knowing your purpose and aligning your actions to make it happen.

YOU’LL LEARN:

  • How to distinguish between true crises and perceived urgency
  • The importance of aligning organizational and personal purpose to drive strategic success
  • A framework for where to spend your time as a leader to build a high-performing organization
  • How to demonstrate respect for people by encouraging a personal understanding of purpose and owning the thinking process, not the answers
  • Practical tips for building a people-centered culture that drives sustainable growth

In our conversation about intention and goals, Isaac asks about my next big goal—listen for the big reveal, never shared publicly until now! I’d love to hear your thoughts.

ABOUT MY GUEST:
