Without revealing too much about 2025, I can tell you this: there are surprises waiting for you. When reality starts impudently interfering with your oh-so-meticulously designed plan, you want to make sure that you are not in a freefall into chaos. Instead, you want to know that even in the middle of the vortex of urgent emails, weird calls and inbound objects on fire, you can keep your eyes on the ball because you are still focusing on what matters. So, how do you stay focused amidst the storm?

I have some good news for you: it looks like some Christmas presents are arriving early this year! To help you stay grounded even during a hurricane, I have already done exactly what is needed: the groundwork.

Why are we doing this?

When push comes to shove, two things happen: the weakest chain breaks and we fall into our default mode. This is why the purpose of this workshop is to define an unshakable modus operandi for you and make sure that your most important routines are not the weakest chain.

What is it about?

With this workshop, we do much more than creating a plan for the year for you. In this very interactive and highly practical workshop we craft the structure for your year. Together, we use a mix of game theory, backward planning, goal mapping to build routines that work. We shall put the assumptions under the scrutiny of common sense – not forgetting a pinch of humor to set yourself for a ride that is going to be not only productive, but also enjoyable.

You will gain clarity, remain focused throughout the year and finish strong!

Who is it for?

This workshop is created for teams and peer-groups of managers and executives. These are participants who want to make the next year a shot to be qualitatively different by bringing underpinning their goals with effective routines and processes.

How are we going to approach this?

This workshop contains a healthy dose of reflection, yet it is highly forward-looking and future oriented:

• Reflect and recap: What has worked well, what hasn’t, what do you want to take into the next year with you?
• Found in translation: what do global goals mean for your department or individually for your glorious self?
• Reverse engineering: if on December 31, 2025, you want to have reached your milestone, what should you start doing in January and continuously keep doing throughout the year?
• Calendar-Kondo: We bring your calendar in sync. What is mission-critical, will find place on your calendar. What finds place on your calendar, gets scheduled. What gets scheduled, gets done. 

Why is it going to work?

Your attention is the scarcest resource you have, and together we assure that it is spent on the items that really matter. As your energy flows where your attention goes, we make sure that the mission critical items have the conscious attention in your mind and, most crucially, their place in your calendar.

You are probably familiar with the seminal quote of Antilochus: We don’t rise to the level of our expectations; we fall to the level of our training. In this workshop, we develop a structure that will provide you with the level of training to match that of your expectations and unleash the power of routines. Thus, you can start the year strong and finish it even stronger.

Spots are limited, but there still is some availability in the second half of October and in November. Reach out to me today so that we can unleash the power of routines for you and set you up for a strong start in 2025!
