January Lean In

Ladies!  Welcome to 2020!  After the surviving the holidays, January is the perfect month to set your personal and professional goals for 2020.

Before we rush off and set goals, let us take a moment to think about our own identity. I believe the more you explore and get to know yourself the better you will be to match-seek to the job that fulfills you, set the goals that are right for you and create the life that offers YOU meaning and BALANCE.

What does it mean to consider your own identity?  Don’t worry, I’m NOT talking psychology.  I’m talking the everyday stuff that makes you YOU!

100% introvert or extrovert?  Hybrid?

Do you LOVE writing out a list and get an enormous sense of accomplishment when you can check, check, check off the items? Are you the “ideas generator “in your team, but struggle to get a project past 80% completion?

The January’s Lean In Circle will be an opportunity to share you the goals you have set with other WOGA members. Let’s target 1-3 personal and 1-3 professional goals for 2020! It’s also a good idea to map the year out in quarters. What will you achieve in the 1st quarter towards your goals?  2nd quarter?  3rd quarter etc. This will help you stay on track. Over the course of the year we will check-in on our goals.

We will also distribute FREE copies of the book club book, Dare to Lead, for all Annual Members. We will wrap up 2020 with a special book club session to discuss the book.
