They see the month as the true start of the new-year, and purposely work very hard to lay the foundation for high achievement way before Auld Lang Syne gets sung. For these highly effective people, the last month of the year is all about winding things <em>up.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>If your ambition\u00a0is to lead your team to spectacular performance in <em>2019<\/em>, here are five things you\u2019ll be very wise to accomplish in December:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Share Your Vision<br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong>Ideally in person, but alternatively through a well-crafted and thoughtful written communication, use December to inspire your team. \u00a0The wonderful effect of sharing your dreams for the coming year \u2013 all you\u2019d like to achieve and become \u2013 is that it gets the juices flowing in the minds and hearts of every person who works for you.\u00a0 Weeks before the new-year starts for real, your employees can give thought to how their efforts fit into your aspirations.\u00a0 And once\u00a0you plant the seed, they will begin to prepare themselves for the coming challenges.\u00a0 One word of guidance: make sure to acknowledge all your team did to support you <em>this<\/em> year, before you re-direct your focus to\u00a0the year ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Meet One-On-One With All Your Direct Reports<br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong>December is a wonderful month to check in with people and to personalize the new-year ahead by discovering new ambitions.\u00a0 Knowing that the greatest reason people burn out at work is because their jobs lack sufficient variety, ask your employees\u00a0if there\u2019s a special project they\u2019d like to be involved in. \u00a0Is there a cross-training or growth opportunity that inspires them?\u00a0 The road to high engagement is making people feel valued and cared for.\u00a0 That\u2019s your\u00a0essential goal for these meetings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Assign Next Year\u2019s Goals<br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong>The funny thing about goals is that they are almost always higher than those assigned the year before. \u00a0We laugh at this, of course, but new and bigger goals very often have the effect of stressing people out and putting them into a disempowered state of fear. \u00a0So, one\u00a0solution is to introduce goals long before they go into effect.\u00a0 The extra time allows people to get their heads around the higher expectations.\u00a0 I\u2019ve also found it extremely helpful to ask employees to prepare a high-level plan for how they will go about achieving those new goals.\u00a0 The exercise typically reveals to people that the mountain isn\u2019t as high as they first imagined.\u00a0 By the time they submit their plan to you, they know how they&#8217;ll reach the summit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Build A Pipeline<br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong>Few things are more exciting for a leader and their team than to have a highly productive month of performance in January (especially important in sales). \u00a0Come early February, it simply feels great to know you\u2019ve gotten off to a phenomenal start in the new-year and to have established early momentum.\u00a0 The best way to ensure this happens is to stack the deck in your favor.\u00a0\u00a0 Whatever you traditionally do to drive results, do more of it in December.\u00a0 Challenge each employee to double down his or her efforts, and to build a pipeline of work that can come to fruition in January.\u00a0 Yes, your team will work harder in December, but the rewards will be worth it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Get Organized And Reflect<br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong>I love the last two\u00a0of weeks of December, and have made a habit of using them to get myself organized and emotionally prepared for the coming year.\u00a0 I clean out files, organize my office, and spend time planning.\u00a0Like chopping wood and carrying water, there\u2019s an unseen but really powerful reward for doing the mundane and preparing yourself for a brand new start.<\/p>\n<p>While not always possible, I also love taking off the last week of the year and hiking\u00a0in nature, going for walks \u2013 having thinking time. \u00a0Late December is an ideal period for personal reflection and for becoming fully re-inspired about the future. \u00a0Every year around this time I&#8217;m inspired by\u00a0C.
