Would you run a race without a warm-up? |

Imagine you’ve trained all year – and it’s the big 100m race. You’ve put the work in and are quite confident. Would you turn up on the day, stroll around and take your tracksuit off 30 seconds before the race, get into your blocks and then run? No, of course not. Mentally and physically you will be under prepared – at best not do yourself justice, and at worst, do some serious damage to your future progress in your chosen area of expertise.
So, let’s transfer that into our world. How often do we phone a client without full preparation or make a headhunt call without “warming up” with one or two contacts first where we know the call will go well? Will “It’s just a catch up call” or “I’m just touching base” type of introductions really do justice to the reason for and get you the right reward from your calls? And when you start taking that into account it applies to so much of what we do. For example, when you are writing adverts, cover notes to CV’s and so many important emails or tenders. Warm up - writing is the same as talking - you have to get your brain in gear. Think about it, on the other side of the coin would you want to read a stale advert or a “samey” cover note? Go on… 10 minutes warm-up might just get you first in that all important race against your competition.
