Since today is the last Friday in January, it is my last chance to make some New Year resolutions that I hope will help me keep focus in 2012. Here is what I plan to stop, start and do more of in 2012:
Things I will stop doing:
- Interrupting when someone else is speaking (Here are tons of reasons and good advice on how to stop)
- Asking for permission (HBR says this is one of the main things that holds managers back)
- Shut down other’s ideas
Things I will start doing:
- Really listen, so that I can hear what the other person is telling me
- Not take things too seriously…laughing is a good thing
- Take time to get to know colleagues that I haven’t worked with before
Things I will do more of:
- Pick up the phone and have a live conversation
- Follow my gut instincts
- Try new things and learn from them
Is there anything you want to stop, start or do more of in 2012?
