A Merry Moment of Reflection and a Bold Start to 2025

"Christmas is the spirit of giving without a thought of getting. It is happiness because we see joy in people. It is forgetting self and finding time for others." – Thomas S. Monson

COACHING MOMENT

Ask an Executive Coach

Every week I take a question from you and provide a bit of strategic advice.

This week's question:

“How do I start the new year strong after the holiday break?"

Question of the Week: "How do I start the new year strong after the holiday break?"

The key to starting 2025 strong is simplicity:

  • Ease Back In: Don’t try to tackle everything on day one. Start with high-priority tasks that set the tone for your week.

  • Revisit Your Goals: Take 15 minutes to review your goals and align them with your executive’s top priorities for Q1.

  • Focus on Connections: Begin the year by fostering relationships—schedule check-ins with key stakeholders and teammates.

Remember, the best way to build momentum is to take one meaningful step at a time.
