2023 Wrap Up
· Dennis Guzik discussed defining small successes and focusing on achievable goals to measure progress.
· Doing what you love is not enough; one must also be good at it and ensure there is a market for it.
· Admitting what you do not know and seeking information is better than bluffing.
· Sharing information with others strengthens teams and prevents problems caused by withholding critical details.
· Plans should be suitable, feasible, and acceptable to determine if they can realistically accomplish the goals.
· Publicly thanking others builds rapport and recognition for their contributions.
· Dressing professionally commands more respect and avoids missing opportunities due to an unpolished appearance.
· Creating contingency plans called "branches and sequels" prepares for unexpected issues. Something being common or popular is not justification if it is unwise or against policy, rules, or principles.
