#TEams365 3643 - 24 for 24 - Day 1- Unleashing the PoweR of Vision for More Flow and Ease

1/1/2024

Day 1 – Vision for the Year and your intentions

Happy New Year!

I hope you had a great end of year and I'm looking forward to getting going again after a week of holidays.

As we step into our 10th year of daily blog posts here at the Teams365 blog, what are you looking forward to?

This year we’re kicking off the year with the 24 for 24 series, 24 days of posts geared to get you into 24 days of focused reflection and action, with more flow, ease and grace.

They will be short posts, diving into 24 core of support you with greater flow and ease in your dat. I hope you enjoy them!

As we get started, here’s our first day of posts and a focus on VISION. What’s your vision for 2024?

If you haven’t done work on your vision, take 30 minutes today to work through this interactive vision mapping session I recorded 6 weeks ago

If you have already created your vision, be sure to pull it out and re-read it.

What do you notice about key themes?
What do you notice about what gets you exited?
Where might you need some more support?
What is going to amplify your results for you in 2024.

With best wishes,
Jennifer

Teams365 #3150: Weekend Journaling Prompt – What’s your Vision?

8/20/2022

As we step into the last two weeks of August which is often seen as the end of the holiday season, it’s an opportunity to explore the prompt of “What’s your Vision?”.

As I like to say and wrote in PlanDoTrack, “Vision helps us with the ebbs and flows of business”. With so much change on the go, our vision can provide more stability.

Enjoy your reflection,
Jennifer

Teams365 #3148: Team Tip: Revisiting Your Vision – Join me for Draw Your Future™

8/18/2022

As we step into what many term the “second new year of the year” it’s a great time as a team to revisit your vision. What are you now and where are you heading? These are the core questions that form the backdrop of the highly visual Draw Your Future™ process I facilitate for teams and organizations (virtually and in person).

Creating a visual tableau of who you are and what you are looking forward to is critical for success in today’s ever-changing landscape.

Check out more about the Draw Your Future process here.

Five reasons why it’s important to take time to revisit your vision at this time are:

It provides an opportunity to reflect on how far you have come this year
It provides a baseline for future reference
It provide an opportunity to come together as a team to do some envisioning around What’s Possible
It provides an opportunity to set some core goals and have those enshrined in something you can refer back to on a regular basis.
And perhaps most importantly, it provides an opportunity to stop, pause and have a conversation around what’s important for you as a team.

What are you next steps? Contact me directly by email at [email protected] or by phone at 416.996.8326 to learn more about how we can bring the Draw Your Future into your organization.

Warm regards,
Jennifer

Stand Out Virtually day 1 of 21 - Create a vision: Teams365 #2559

1/1/2021

Stand Out Virtually Day #1 – Create a Clear Vision“To the person who does not know where (S)he wants to go there is no favorable wind” – SenecaThe starting point for our 21 for 2021 starts with the big picture. What’s your vision?
Creating a vision at this time of year is not just a nice-to-do activity, it is an essential activity which anchors us, clarifies where we want to go, and helps us make decisions as to what options or paths we want to follow. This is particularly important in the remote and virtual space, given that our work is very self-directed.
Visioning work doesn’t have to take a long time, in fact, your invitation today is to write for 10 -15 minutes around these questions.

Activity
Grab a new document or booklet and set a time for 1-2 minutes with each of these questions. Start it with:
It’s December 31, 2021 and……
Provide details about what you are doing this year, what you are focusing on, what’s working and what’s not.
Consider these questions as a prompt
It is December 31, 2021 and I am reflecting on the year that was. Note:

What were your successes?
Where was your focus?
What products or services did you offer or focus on?
Who have you have been working with?
What philosophies and values anchored you?
What have you become known for?
What have been the major milestones?
What goals have you achieved?

What’s your vision for the new year? If you haven’t had time to think about it, now’s the time to capture it.
Take time this week to focus on your 2021 vision, WRITING it down and possibly posting elements of it around you.
Many of my clients create visual reminders on their phone, on Trello, through vision boards and other elements.

Conversation Sparkers

What is your vision for this year?
What will you focus on to Stand Out Virtually

ACTION
Share your TRELLO Board, or Photo, at the Virtual and Remote Visionaries Hub with #Day1for21SOV

Have a great start to the new year!

TEAMS365 #2542 – Power Up – Stand Out Virtually – In Review

12/15/2020

Last week I hosted the Power Up Stand Out Virtually Five-Day Challenge. As with any of the challenges I’ve run this year, it as full of learning, connection and ideas. I love the inspiration of bringing different people together for a series of calls.

During the five days we explored:

The Power of Vision and Purpose
The Power of Engagement
The Power of Planning and Systems
Powering Up our Marketing and Branding
The Power of Teams and Community

Each one of these is an important lever as we move into a new year. What are you doing to build in time in your work for each one?

We’ll be touching on many of these topics later this week on Friday December 18th between 10-2 pm ET at the Virtual Open House I am hosting to showcase some of the work those in my community are engaging with. I hope that you will join us for the entire 4 hours or part of it.

If you missed last week’s Power Up Stand Out Virtually Five-Day Challenge, you can now participate in on-demand, moving through each of the five days at your own pace. It’s available to you at $47 US and includes the five days of videos, worksheets and even a few planning tools for you to take forward from PlanDoTrack. You can get it here

It’s likely that the entire skillset of virtual will continue to be a key focus for 2021, whether the world of work will include more virtual or hybrid work. I look forward to continuing to serve you in the new year!

Best,
Jennifer

TEAMS365 #2539 – Weekly Journaling Prompt #133

12/12/2020

Welcome back to another weekend! This week’s prompt is …”This time, next year I hope….”

I hope that this will invite you to do a little dreaming and visioning. For some, it’s harder to do that this year. At the same time, the power of vision is key in helping us move forward. As I have shared in the blog already this year, having a strong vision can pull us forward. It can be the thing which is helping us to move swiftly with your work. What are the elements which are going to help you focus even more?

Enjoy the reflection,
Jennifer

TEAMS365 #2528 – Starting a New Month, November Reflections, & Starting to Wind Down the Year

12/1/2020

Here we are at December. It’s hard to believe that we are here already. Given that it’s a new month, let’s take a moment to build in a reflective pause to capture the learning. I hope that you’ll earmark 15 minutes to work through today’s questions:

Reflecting on the month of November:

What were my major achievements this past month?
What do I want to celebrate?
As I consider my goals (and resolutions) I made at the start of the year, how am I doing with these on a scale of 1-10? Which ones are becoming new habits or something I can check off?
Which goals need to be let go of or changed?
What habits have supported me this past month?
As a leader, what have I noticed about my team this past month?
As a leader, what notes should I make about performance issues? (if I haven't done it already!)
The thing that has helped me be most productive this month has been ______
The thing that has helped me be most successful this month has been ______
The thing that has helped me be happiest this month has been ________
The thing that has helped me be most healthy has been _______
What have I noticed about my work/productivity/results and/or relationships during the winter months (if you are in the northern hemisphere) or summer (if you are in the southern hemisphere)?
How I’m doing with my theme of the year (how I am living it, embodying it)?

Looking ahead to December:

The one thing I am committed to completing this month is…
The project I want to get started…
The project I most want to wrap up is...
My priorities are:
Our team priorities are:
My goals are:
My teams goals are:
I want to...
I'll be really happy at the end of December or/the year when….

All the best,
Jennifer
