The Science of Habit Formation: How Long Does It Take to Develop a New Habit?

Executive Coaching Aides in Habit Forming

Executive Leadership Coaching Helps Form New Habits

There is a widespread belief that it takes 21 days to form a new habit. This notion is often attributed to Dr. Maxwell Maltz, a plastic surgeon in the 1950s who noticed his patients seemed to acclimate to their new faces or limbs after approximately 21 days. However, modern psychology and neuroscience have a more nuanced understanding of this process.  A habit is a routine of behavior that is repeated regularly and tends to occur subconsciously. Habits are integral parts of our daily lives, influencing everything from our morning routines to our professional tasks. They can be good (like exercising regularly) or bad (like excessive screen time). Regardless of whether we aim to develop new habits or change old ones, understanding the timeline of habit formation can be beneficial, especially when working on habits as part of the executive leadership coaching process with Jeff Oskin.

Overcoming the Challenges of Leading a Family Business

Introduction

Lower Frustration by Developing Your Team

Family businesses often have a unique dynamic that can be both a blessing and a curse for leadership. Specifically, family members who have grown up in the business have a wealth of knowledge and experience. They know virtually every aspect of the business and have probably done every job at one time or another. However, while this can be a tremendous asset, it can also become a burden when team members continually look to the owner for guidance. When the owner is constantly answering questions and solving problems, it makes it difficult to grow and develop a leadership team. That's where executive coaching and leadership development come into play.
