As the new year begins, leaders often feel pressure to set goals and move quickly. In this episode, Andy Huckaba and Teresa Schwab invite leaders to slow down and lead with greater intention.
They explore why reflection matters more than resolutions, how leaders drift without noticing, and why values—not just goals—must anchor leadership decisions. This conversation offers practical ways to create space, protect energy, and establish a clear North Star that guides leadership throughout the year.
