One of our exceptionally talented new business development leads, Joe Martin, asked me a question the other day. It stopped me in my tracks. It was right after a company-wide meeting where we talked with 75 people about big picture themes and vision.
He said, “But Allison, what’s the end goal? How will we know we’ve reached it?”
He was on the verge of an ah-ha moment; one that would teach him to see life and work differently. That it’s not about hitting a certain number of employees or a revenue target or getting the next award….it’s about enjoying the small stuff, finding a way to power through the hard days, and appreciating the micro-moments on a human level.
Joe and I go deep about work and life and “the finish line” — and hopefully this episode allows you to pause, reflect, and embrace your next ah-ha moment.
