Finishing the Year With the Right Priorities.
September 2023 | Issue 1
Finding Our Priorities
I just closed the books on my fourth year being on my own, and if you had asked me when I decided to start this venture that this is where I’d be, I never would’ve guessed this.
My initial plan was to focus on large-scale facilitation, something I love; however, a global pandemic hit, and I had to pivot. I lost all my work in a moment and had to prioritize my next steps. I didn’t give up, and eventually, things started to turn around. However, my business went in a new direction. Focusing on change management, process improvement and working with teams, I still love this work today. Through this journey, I’ve learned one key thing: plans are one thing, and goals are another. The purpose of this business has always been to work with people, teams and organizations to help get them ready for the future. I’m still doing that; it’s just in a different way. Where plans change, goals don’t always have to, and you sometimes will need to re-prioritize how you achieve them.
For me, this is the start of my new year; for many, it’s the final third of yours, and regardless of whether it’s at the beginning or the end, you must prioritize what you are doing and spending your time and energy on.
One of my priorities is finding ways to share ideas, tips, and tools for how teams can work together to create the right path. Creating an effective team can make or break any initiative, and if there is one thing I would do for the rest of my life, it would be this work. This newsletter intends to do just that. It will focus on ideas, tips and inspiration on how to find ways to be effective.
See below a simple tool I use to help me focus and subsequent tips on how to use my time productively.
