As we approach the final days of 2021, it is the perfect time to dedicate quality time to reflection and recovery. When we study elite performers, whether they be individuals or teams, we will discover that they dedicate specific time to reflection & recovery. Analysing their performance across 2021 – looking at what they did well so they can identify positive habits and build higher levels of performance around those habits. They also identify gaps and areas that are not yet elite, but through practice and application, will give themselves an opportunity to get to the elite level. This is what separates exceptional leaders from their competition.
