The 2023 first quarter ends today at COB.
Why should this matter to you?
We all, everyone of us, need something to measure ourselves by.
We are able to measure how everything is going compared to previous similar periods of time. We should be looking at what we planned to do compared to what we actually did and take notice.
Did we perform better than we expected?
Why? Where did we do better? What did we do for this result?
Similarly if we did not do as well as we expected?
Why? Where did we fall short? What might we have done differently?
These are all important things to review and take notice of. Which are why the end of the 2023 first quarter matters.
Most importantly, what do we need to change?
If things are going well for us… where are we able to make improvements?
If things are not going well… what changes must be made to achieve better results?
In either case, staying the same and not changing, is unacceptable.
The world around all of us is changing every day.
For me, you or anyone with a business to run and a life to live to stand still while everything around us is changing makes no sense.
*AI is the hot topic right now. It’s been out there for a few years, however, since November 2022, it’s been easier for the general public to access and try out. How will AI evolve and potentially change areas of all of our businesses and personal lives?
** The ability to hire such highly educated and experienced people continues to be a fortunate and unfortunate occurrence. It’s unfortunate that so many people will continue to be laid off and released from their jobs. It’s fortunate for the companies and organizations who have the need and the ability to bring onboard such highly qualified people onto their team. How does this impact your company? How does it impact your employees and their families?
*** There are still supply issues worldwide. Some of these still exist from the Covid-19 virus. More likely now it’s from the Ukraine – Russia conflict and the USA – China issues.
How are these situations currently impacting or in the future going to impact your business and your customers?
Do any of these potentially impact you and your business?
How about your clients and customers?
What specific action steps will you take, just in case?
Give this another quick read through and take a few minutes to give some thought into what pops into your mind.
Write out the actions to be taken with dates attached to each.
Pay attention at the very least to the end of each quarter.
