The Small Wins Hidden in Big Failures

Leaders - are you taking time to celebrate progress?

Here’s why you should, even if you’re behind on your biggest goals…

It’s easy to focus on the losses instead of the wins.

But when we get stuck on what we weren’t able to achieve, we often lose sight of what we WERE able.

Recognizing achievements, no matter how small helps maintain motivation and morale during challenging times.

If your goal was to make $50M this year, but you’ve only made $25M because the economy changed or how many people you have has changed…

What can you still celebrate?

For example, I had an executive say they weren’t finding leads.

It turns out they were getting leads but weren’t leveraging them to the fullest.

Celebrate the fact that you’re still getting leads.

Look at how to leverage them better.

Celebration is a tool I leverage with clients.

When managing complex change, rewards propel you forward.

It doesn't have to be money - it could be recognition.

It helps you continue to move forward.
