Get Organized at Work | Career, Leadership, Project Management, Productivity, Time Management
Are you easily distracted at work - struggling to keep tasks and projects organized? Do you wish you could accelerate your career growth, but you feel held back due to unclear expectations or your lack of boundaries? Are you tired of the vicious cycle of burnout and long to feel the peace that comes with doing fulfilling, impactful work? I am so excited you’re here! This podcast is your go-to for all things career growth! You’ll learn productivity systems to help you get organized, plan ahead, and accomplish your work efficiently. You’ll increase your ability to anticipate problems at work and inside your team before they occur and increase your confidence to lead through them. Goodbye burnout, hello confident, proactive leadership! Hey, I’m Kayla Fahey-Ahrndt, MPH, MLS(ASCP)SBB…but you can call me KFA! I’ve got 12+ years of professional healthcare leadership experience, and I have 9+ years of management experience. I’m a mama of 3 littles, wife and best friend to my hubby who is also in healthcare, and coffee and planner obsessed. When I first stepped into my first professional leadership role, I was promoted quickly! At the time, I was a new mama and had way less experience than those I was leading. I knew I needed to learn and grow in order to succeed in my role. I lacked work-life balance and had no boundaries. I experienced burnout quickly by trying to people please and do everything myself. I worked long hours and my relationships suffered as a result. I finally realized that I needed simple, effective strategies to help me get organized and manage my competing priorities. I created my own daily management tool which helped me get organized, manage stress, achieve work-life integration. I quickly became the go-to leader for innovative healthcare leadership, and I was promoted again! If you are ready to implement sustainable systems and strategies to help you get organized, ditch the burnout, and finally get the recognition you deserve, grab your coffee or bubbly and press play on my show while you rock your spreadsheets! It’s time to dive in!

Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed by the cycle of never-ending to-do lists? In this episode of the Get Organized at Work Podcast, we dive into why traditional to-do lists are failing you and how they’re keeping you stuck in a cycle of burnout and busywork. Discover the power of Leader Standard Work—a system I discovered around ten years ago that's helped myself as well as professionals on my team (and especially in healthcare) focus on strategic outcomes, align daily habits with big goals, and finally take control of their time. We’ll explore why this approach is superior to task-based lists and tackle common objections, like “I’ve tried it before, and it didn’t work” or “I just have too much work and I'm so busy." Plus, learn how to get started with Leader Standard Work today in a simple, sustainable way. Don’t forget to join our free Get Organized at Work Community for exclusive resources, including a free Leader Standard Work template, step-by-step videos, and access to our Project Roadmap Webinar replay. If you’re ready to boost your productivity and achieve your career goals, this episode is a must-listen!
