Each year, as the festive season unfolds, I diligently take notes.
Not just about what's working, but also what isn’t.
These notes are more than just scribbles; they are a crucial part of our tradition to capture every detail, big or small, from our busiest season.
In January, our team gathers for a thorough debrief.
We use these notes to reflect on our experiences.
This meeting is essential as it helps us distil insights and set actionable goals for the following year.
By August, we revisit these notes and the outcomes of our January session.
This isn't just a trip down memory lane, it’s a strategic review that’s key to refining our plans and enhancing our performance for the upcoming festive season.
This practice of continuous reflection and adjustment should be a cornerstone of your success.
Helping you improve your efficiency and effectiveness with each passing year.
So, as you manage this festive season, remember, "He's making a list, and checking it twice..."
Why not start your tradition of detailed note-taking and January debriefs?
It could be your gateway to a more successful year ahead!
Have a great week.
