Happy New Year! With a new year comes a blank slate and a chance to start anew to have more and more Wake Up Eager days in 2025.

This means more days spent excited and engaged with your work, aligned and empowered by your strengths, and intentional and thoughtful experiences.

All the tactical advice and frameworks we share are designed to help you get closer to having every day be a Wake Up Eager day.

One of the best ways to do that is by aligning your actions with your Motivators. The more you align your role and activities with these passions, the more you—and your team—will feel empowered, purposeful, and unstoppable.

If you're looking to greater stronger team cohesion, side-by-side reports are the secret ingredient to making it happen. If you think one could help you, just hit reply and let me know!

If you're using any report or assessment as part of your workforce, avoiding making this #1 mistake I see with organizations and leaders.

An assessment, a well-defined job description, and “A Bulldog Personality” walk into a room… and this is what happened.

In the spirit of the new year and everything that comes with it, it could feel tempting to start sharing advice with your team and loved ones. This 5-min read explains why that might not be the best idea for your relationships.

Warm regards and cheers to creating many Wake Up Eager Days in 2025,

Are you using side-by-side reports yet?

A Side-by-Side Report dives deep into the assessment results of two individuals, providing a clear view of where alignment exists and where potential conflicts might arise.

It is the ultimate tool for creating cohesive collaboration.

Are you planning to hire in 2025?

If your hiring processes last year always took longer than you expected, it’s time to set some realistic expectations for 2025.

When rushing hiring, filling roles with the wrong fit can lead to higher turnover, lost productivity, and wasted resources. On the other hand, an overly drawn-out process can deter top candidates who won’t wait forever.

In 2025, it's time to have more Wake Up Eager days!

Check in with your Motivators assessment to see how your days, goals, and plans for the new year are aligning with what puts gas in your tank!



The more you align your role and activities with these passions, the more you—and your team—will feel empowered, purposeful, and unstoppable.
