What's your elevator pitch? I've also heard it called Bam Statement.
Here's mine:

I help business owners and managers become effective leaders without getting burnout or worse.

I would flip this to be more positive like “enable leaders to operate at their highest level without distractions”. Or change the wording - I don’t think a lot of successful leaders get burnt out - that’s why they are successful. Also, what is effective?

Agree with all of the above. Also an elevator pitch is different from a single brief ("bam") statement. Elevator pitch is like, what 30s-2m maybe?

I firmly believe leadership makes the difference.

Not only, it highlins each one's value, but especially spreads this value among others.
I'm speaking about life, in a broad sense, which also include work life, but it is not limited to that.

Looking for any kind of suggestion to improve my leadership: books, experiences, attitudes, daily-routine, ...

Thank you!

Once I have used the money that’s been invested there’s no way of seeing it again and still bringing the return quick enough.

Any advice?
