Happy New Year and welcome to 2024!

The start of a new year is a perfect time to take a look at how you and your organization are handling key elements of performance.

It can be almost too easy to fall back into what we're used to, but there's no time like the present to improve.

For working with direct reports and mentees—or if you're considering building a mentorship program in your organization—use our Quick Guide on how to conduct productive meetings focused on growth.

If you've headed back to work and are having the same communication problems with someone as you did last year, read my story about the same situation and how I was able to resolve it.

Leaders, if you're looking to grow and improve this year, it might be time for you to change the way you ask for feedback from your team. Try Feed Forward; the results may surprise you.

I'll be back in your inbox next month with another round of insights and updates. If you want more weekly doses of this content, follow Priceless Professional Development on LinkedIn.
