4 Reasons You Should Conduct a Mid-Year Review

Without a plan, everything just sounds like more work.  But plans need to be revised, revisited, and optimised to remain relevant - at ActionCoach, that is exactly what we are challenging you to do!

#1 Identify Changes Necessary to Move Business Forward

You work in your business every day, and it is easy to be set back with the everyday challenges that arise. So in your review session, look into the changes that are necessary in order to get out of your own way. By identifying these key points on paper, it’ll help moving them to the top of your to-do list with an actionable plan.

#2 Create a Step by Step Plan to Implement Changes

Now that you have identified the changes necessary, perhaps consider contacting a business coach to help you create a plan of action to systematically achieve results. Work on how to set benchmarks, and how to prioritize the tasks that are necessary to move the needle forward.

#3 Generate Energy and Clarity for Yourself & Your Team

Now that your changes are identified, and your steps are clearly outlined, the next most important step is creating the energy and empowerment to continue the plan. Keeping your staff motivated, keep yourself on track, and to keep the path clear for success are all critical ingredients here.

#4 Develop Confident Decision-Making Skills

Let’s face it, challenges will arise to the best plans (isn’t that what Mike Tyson once said?); but leaders are set apart by their abilities to make confident decisions that impact success.  Exploring ways that you can develop your decision-making skills and focus on looking forward to the things that can be changed are aspects a business coach can help you with.  Behaviour is often half the battle, and we have a few key strategies to developing these leadership skills.

Ask yourself this – how are you tracking with regard to your 2021 goals?  If you’re less than halfway there, what needs to change/ what changes do you need to make – to speed up the achievement of these goals given we’re now past the halfway mark?
