For many, 2020 was a year of extraordinary resilience and my practice and our family were no exception. I am hopeful that 2021 will be the year of robust health – personal, local, national, global, financial, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
My hopes, dreams, goals and intentions for the coming 12 months include personal as well as business objectives, and as with last year, I have made an effort to integrate CliftonStrengths (Strengths-Based Leadership by Tom Rath) with The Thought Leaders Practice (Matt Church, Peter Cook and Scott Stein), given that both philosophies contribute significantly to the legacy I am attempting to build.
Hope:
- For my family to experience a prolonged (>12 months) period of positive health, free of the dramas of 2020
Dream:
- To see the world unite in its coordinated effort to overcome Covid-19, and rebuild local, national and global economies with new insight about the future of humanity and our role as stewards of the planet
