How everyone can leave a legacy at work
1. Reflect on impact
The first step towards establishing a workplace legacy requires people to reflect on the impact they want to have.
“Ask yourself, ’What will people say about my contribution when I’m gone?’” advises Shah.
One way to articulate this is by undertaking a "tombstone coaching" exercise, which Fenwick uses with clients, where they imagine they are in the last days of their life.
“On that last day, are you going to look back on your life and feel a level of fulfillment?” he asks. “Were you true to your word? Did you live by your values and achieve what you said you would? Was that the thing you really wanted to do?”
Similarly, being a trusted sounding board can leave a powerful legacy. “Make yourself available as a reliable confidant for others,” suggests Shah. “Provide honest and constructive feedback.”
In addition, he encourages people to reflect on their chosen legacy and why it is important. “There will always be times when it feels too hard or you don’t have the time,” he says. “But if you’re connected to your ’why’ that’s your internal motivator and the fuel that’s going to push you forward.”
She recommends starting with small, consistent actions: aligning behaviour with values, prioritising relationships, celebrating wins and failures, and challenging the status quo.
“Remember, your legacy isn’t built in a single action or initiative,” says Shah.
“It’s the sum of consistent, intentional behaviours over time. Every decision, conversation and interaction contribute to what you’ll ultimately leave behind.”

Charlotte Douglas International Airport
Thanks for watching this complete airport tour of Charlotte Douglas International Airport!
As a lifelong traveler, I never get tired of the process of boarding a plane going somewhere new and exciting! Today, I'm visiting an airport I'd never seen before, but one that many travelers visit every time they travel.
Charlotte Douglas International Airport, CLT, is one of American Airlines' primary domestic and regional hubs, providing service to hundreds of destinations around North America. It's the 10th busiest airport in the United States, providing connections for tens of thousands of passengers each day.
This tour covers each of Charlotte's five airside concourses as well as its central atrium, including each departure hall, directions to each, and practical tips and time to help you connect to your next flight. CLT's in the process of expanding and remodeling, and we'll look at the airport's future, too. For many visitors, Charlotte is just a stop on the way to their final destination, but I'll show you why it's a nice place to spend a few minutes or a few hours. Thanks for joining me on this tour!

Additional information
1.
When an airport says “all gates are connected beyond security,” it means that once you pass through the security checkpoint, you can access any departure gate in that terminal—or in some cases, across multiple terminals—without needing to go through security again.
So for travelers, it usually means:
Easy gate changes: If your gate changes last-minute, you won’t need to exit and re-enter security.
More food/shopping options: You can walk to restaurants or shops near other gates.
Simpler connections: If you're connecting flights, you won’t need to go through security again.
