Someone asked me how my new role is going.
I told her. “If I could do it all over again, I would schedule more time to meet with the leadership team. You know, set aside time for monthly check-ins. I’d also really work to understand their function. It’s been 90 days already, and I realize I don’t yet know enough about each team to understand their objectives and the challenges they have.”
Then I realized.
“Doing it all over again” can start tomorrow.
It can start today.
We’ve only failed when we ignore what we know will make us stronger. Better.
Think, Do, Reflect …
- Think: If you could ‘do it all over again’ what would you do differently?
- Do: Hindsight is 20/20. Given this… what will you start today?
- Reflect: After 30 days, did the adjustment you made impact how satisfied you are with the current state?
