The Real Career Advantage: Why Consistency Beats Talent Every Time

Consistency wins! Consistency doesn’t just keep you organized —it’s the secret behind promotions, influence, and long-term career growth. In this Consistency Systems Series finale of the Get Organized at Work Podcast, host Kayla Fahey-Ahrndt celebrates over 30 K downloads and walks you through the five powerful lessons that built this series:

1️⃣ The Hidden Costs of Inconsistency at Work – why predictability matters more than perfection.
2️⃣ The 80/20 of Work Systems – focus on the right 20 percent that drives 80 percent of results.
3️⃣ How to Build a Rhythm You Can Stick To – master “minimum viable consistency.”
4️⃣ Consistency Without Burnout – use automation, templates, and delegation to create ease.
5️⃣ The Consistency Blueprint – personalize Leader Standard Work like a recipe that fits your style.

Kayla ties every lesson together—sharing insights from her Sioux Falls keynote “Leader as a Culture Shaper” and reminding listeners that daily habits shape trust, visibility, and leadership readiness.
