2025-08-01 - The Quiet Power of a 12-Minute Huddle
Early on in my career, my working days were consumed by constant interruptions. Staff would appear at my office door with urgent questions, small updates, and endless requests. Each one felt important, but together they drained my focus and left me feeling exhausted.
Then I introduced something deceptively simple: a daily focused huddle. Just 12 minutes. Everyone gathered. We asked three questions:
What is your priority today?
What help do you need?
What could block your progress?
That was it. No long updates. No drifting conversations. Just clarity and alignment.
The impact was immediate. People stopped hovering at my door. Collaboration improved. Decisions were made quickly, and energy stayed high. What seemed like a "small" change saved me hours each week and gave the team a sense of momentum.
What I discovered is that the quiet discipline of short, focused meetings creates loud results. It teaches people to prepare, to communicate clearly, and to value each other's time.
This week, I encourage you to experiment. Call your team together, keep it under 15 minutes, and ask those three questions. You may be amazed at how something so small can transform the way people work together.
Sometimes leadership breakthroughs don't come from grand strategies they come from simple rhythms practised consistently.

What My Clients Say
"Before contacting Gina I was lacking direction & belief in myself. I never thought I'd come out of the other side so quickly. I am very thankful that I have Gina in my life. It was through working with her that I turned mine and my sons life around and have been living my life again from a place of strength, I've learnt to value myself again and it has helped me to discover who I am and what I want for me and my family.
I have learned so much from her and feel that she has inspired me to develop into who I was created to be. I thank God for her amazing talent in helping me tremendously and for that I am forever thankful.
Gina has had much valuable input into my life. I have learned so much from her and she has inspired me to develop into who I was created to be.
I thank God that Gina came into my life and made great things happen , I've made some pretty big changes! And, I'm feeling MUCH more confident and centered, how can you put a value on that? My family, friends and colleagues have noticed big changes in me. My life has turned completely around.
I thought it would take six months, maybe a year or even more and was surprised when Gina suggested I booked 10 sessions and she would refund me for any sessions that I did not use. After the first session I knew if anyone could use their magic on me it would be Gina, it was a magnificent start. She supported and encouraged me through her highly accurate listening and feedback skills. I found the sessions exciting, motivational and worth every penny.
I am on my way to a happier and healthier future, I highly recommend Gina to anyone ready to make some big changes, her insight and direction is so valuable - and you cannot help catching her enthusiasm for life."
