Can you believe nearly half the year has sped by? Since half of the year is over, it’s time for a Mid-Year Review.

In this follow-up to our Strategic Planning workshop, we invite you back to participate in the transforming exercise of a mid-year review. This review process allows us to gauge the headway we’ve made and how to readjust to ensure our success is predetermined. In this interactive class, we’ll learn the techniques to gain a more precise snapshot of your progress.

A mid-year review is a valuable tool to support your professional and personal growth. The review works with your strategic plan by helping you track progress, make necessary course corrections, and embrace adaptability. By conducting regular reviews, you foster a sense of accountability and identify the factors that contribute to or hinder your success. Additionally, these reviews facilitate continuous learning and improvement, allowing you to refine your strategies and approaches.

In summary, incorporating quarterly reviews into your planning process is a powerful way to promote growth and success. It helps you stay focused, learn from your experiences, enhance communication with your accountability partners, boost motivation, and make informed decisions. Embrace the benefits of quarterly reviews and set yourself up for continuous improvement and long-term achievement.

We will work in small groups and individually to review the progress you’ve made this year. Join us!
