Close out your year like an operator
Before we start mapping next year, grab this. One of the most useful habits from Special Forces is the After Action Review. We ran them after every mission. Didn't matter if it was training or a 6-month deployment. The debrief is where the real learning happens. I've adapted the AAR format into a simple 1-page template for leadership year-end reflection. It walks you through: - What you intended this year vs. what actually happened - Where the gaps showed up and why - What to sustain, improve, or start in 2025 If you want a copy, drop REVIEW in the comments. I'll send it to you directly.
