For senior leaders, the problem isn’t productivity –it’s priority drift. Calendars fill up. Requests pile on. And the work that actually moves the organization forward gets squeezed into the margins.

The Strategist’s Weekly Planner was designed for exactly this reality.

Instead of functioning as a task list, the planner becomes a weekly decision-making system. At the start of each week, leaders identify three outcomes that must move forward for the week to be considered successful. These aren’t vague intentions–they’re concrete results.

The four-quadrant system is where the clarity happens.

In the Top-Left quadrant, leaders place high-impact work directly tied to those outcomes: preparing a decision memo, outlining a strategic narrative, or blocking time to think before a key meeting. This quadrant defines what deserves protected time on the calendar.

The Top-Right quadrant holds incoming requests–approvals, reviews, quick asks, and Slack messages. Writing these down prevents them from interrupting strategic work and makes it easier to batch them intentionally.

The Bottom-Left quadrant captures maintenance tasks: admin work, recurring check-ins, expense reports. These still matter, but they no longer masquerade as priorities.

Finally, the Bottom-Right quadrant becomes a powerful leadership tool. Meetings that don’t align. Requests that can wait. Work that doesn’t support the week’s outcomes. This quadrant creates permission to defer–or decline–without guilt.

​

Finally, tasks and to-do items get moved to the days of the week on the Right Page so they actually happen, and in the right priority order.

For senior leaders, the planner isn’t about doing more. It’s about making fewer, better decisions–and protecting the time to act on them. 

Side hustles don’t fail because of bad ideas. They fail because they’re constantly postponed in favor of urgent–but less meaningful–work.
The Strategist’s Weekly Planner helps builders turn side projects into weekly momentum, even with limited time.

 

At the start of each week, side-hustle builders choose one or two outcomes that would meaningfully move their project forward. Not everything. Just what matters now.

The four-quadrant system creates structure without rigidity.
 

In the Top-Left quadrant, builders place their most important side-hustle actions: shipping a landing page, drafting outreach emails, recording content, or testing a new offer. These tasks get intentional time blocks–even if that’s just two evenings a week.
 

The Top-Right quadrant is reserved for day-job responsibilities–meetings, deadlines, and required deliverables. This separation keeps the job from swallowing the builder’s identity.

The Bottom-Left quadrant holds personal maintenance: workouts, meal planning, admin life tasks. Builders use this flexibly depending on energy and season.

The Bottom-Right quadrant becomes an idea parking lot. New concepts, future experiments, and “someday” ideas go here–written down so they don’t distract from execution.

The result is a planner that doesn’t just organize time–it protects the builder mindset. Progress becomes visible, even in small increments.

For working parents, the challenge isn’t lack of effort–it’s competing priorities that change by the hour.

The Strategist’s Weekly Planner acknowledges that reality by helping parents coordinate work, family, and personal wellbeing in one flexible system.
 

Each week begins with identifying a small number of non-negotiables. These might include a work deadline, a school commitment, or protected family time. The goal isn’t perfection–it’s clarity.

The four-quadrant layout supports intentional tradeoffs.
 

In the Top-Left quadrant, parents list must-happen items: critical work deliverables, school deadlines, or important family moments. These anchor the week.
 

The Top-Right quadrant captures logistics–appointments, pickups, calls, errands. Seeing these grouped together reduces mental clutter and last-minute scrambling.
 

The Bottom-Left quadrant is used for wellbeing and routines: movement, sleep goals, or personal habits. Parents use this gently, adjusting expectations week to week.
 

The Bottom-Right quadrant holds nice-to-have tasks–decluttering, social plans, reading. This quadrant helps parents release guilt when everything doesn’t get done.
 

Instead of trying to do everything, the planner helps working parents decide what enough looks like–each week, on their terms.
