How Will You Work Differently in 2023?
Wishing you a strategic new year!

Sure, you have the desire to get the new year off to a productive start. But what’s your plan? What decisions can you make today that will enable you to hold focus and sustain collaborative traction for the entire year?
What shall I choose to STOP doing?
Decide to relieve yourself of tasks, responsibilities, and expectations that aren’t critical to your success. Reclaim your precious time and attention so you can put it to even better use.
Whose support powers my potential for success?
It’s every leader’s job to provide the resources, skills, and/or recognition that your team needs and deserves. What can you invest in today that will enhance their effectiveness? Looking for guidance? Work one-on-one with Matt Lehrman for a personalized coaching experience designed specifically for civic, municipal, and nonprofit leaders. Take this opportunity to pause, reflect, and refocus—not just on your role but on your growth as a leader.
To where shall I sprint?
It may be common to set annual goals, but a year can be a very long time. But if you run at full speed right now for a short distance, what might you achieve of significance by, say, January 31, 2023? Nothing succeeds like success - Go!
What should I learn?
When you’re so busy being productive, it’s easy to forget the continual need to learn new techniques and technologies. Whether you’ll do that by reading a book, attending a conference, or taking a class, make a specific decision now to substantially improve your most important tool (yourself!).
Are we really together?
There’s never a bad time to reconfirm the bearing and velocity of your organization with your trustees, council members, committee, board of directors, management team, and other stakeholders.
