This is the time of year where it\u2019s pretty natural to start thinking of the year ahead. Well\u2026 the reality is that most of us have probably been doing that over these last couple of months. But sometimes, life changes fast\u2026 doesn\u2019t it? Even if you\u2019ve done what you should have been doing and have thought deeply about your 2023 planning well in advance, chances are there are so many new variables in play now. Whether it\u2019s macro-economic conditions, internal changes, competitive moves\u2026 the world may look a little different now than it did two months ago.<\/p>\n
So guess what \u2013 it\u2019s time to revisit those plans.<\/p>\n
The one thing I\u2019ll encourage you to do in order to properly revisit those plans you\u2019ve made is to step out of your bubble. Get out of the office. If the \u201coffice\u201d is your kitchen island (like it is for me)… then get out of your house. Find an environment for the day where you can feel some inspiration. Go through that plan you and your team put together in great detail now once more, and start thinking about whether any recent developments changes the game for you.<\/p>\n
Believe me, you won\u2019t be the most popular person internally if you\u2019re bringing up potential changes to the plan just a couple of weeks before everybody\u2019s about to be OOO. But\u2026 in a couple of weeks\u2026 everybody\u2019s about to be OOO. So there\u2019s no better time to revisit the plan than right now.<\/p>\n
The worst-case scenario is this extra deep thought around your 2023 plan results in no change at all\u2026 and you\u2019ve spent a few hours for nothing. Then again, that might actually be the best case scenario. In fact, this should be what we hope for. Because if that\u2019s the case, we can especially feel great about the plan in front of us and start off 2023 on the right foot.<\/p>\n
So before the Holiday season takes us away from the office, consider dusting that 2023 plan off just one more time to review where things stand. It can\u2019t hurt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
