    ChatGPT can be very helpful here. Plugin the details of your company and team size and have it ask you questions on what you should be considering based on your role. This can help ground you and pull you out of the weeds. You can also ask the question: If someone was hired to replace you, what is the first thing they would do?

    In addition, ask other functional leaders for input.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
