It’s the start of the year, but for many leaders, that holiday glow has already faded. A week or two back at work, and it’s like you never left—fires to put out, projects on top of projects being launched or requested, team members still finding their rhythm, looming restructures, and financial pressures that didn’t take a break. Sound familiar?
If you’re already feeling like 2025 is a runaway train, let’s hit pause. Before you dive headlong into another relentless year, take a breath and ask yourself: What do I actually want from this year?
5 Essential Questions for Leaders to Kickstart 2025:
🔹 What’s my intention for the year? Not just what I need to deliver, but how I want to lead.
🔹 What worked well last year? Which habits and rituals helped me, and which do I need to rethink?
🔹 What are my non-negotiables for balance? (Spoiler: If it’s not scheduled, it won’t happen.) Physical, emotional, mental, spiritual—what do I need to thrive, not just survive?
🔹 Where is my team at? Are they clear on their goals and how they need to work together? Do we have the right structure, right people, right operating rhythm?
🔹 What’s their perspective? Have I checked in on what’s working and what needs attention?
Your Leadership Reset:
A great year doesn’t happen by accident. Take the time now to reset, refocus, and be intentional about how you show up.
