Welcome back to "Grow Here Now: Session Three" — "Staying the Course and Planning for the Future"! Whether you're returning for another insightful session or joining us for the first time, we're thrilled to have you on board. In this session, we're focusing on the crucial balance between staying on track with your current objectives and preparing for the opportunities and challenges of tomorrow.

Led by the insightful Sinikka Waugh, we'll begin by revisiting the tools and strategies introduced in our earlier sessions. This refresher ensures that everyone is not just informed but empowered to move forward effectively.Have the day-to-day demands shifted your focus away from your long-term vision? It's time to pause, reflect, and re-calibrate. We'll explore how to bridge the gap between your current position and your future aspirations, ensuring alignment and momentum.But we're not stopping there. We'll thoroughly explore a proven retrospective process, leveraging insights gained to propel you towards even greater success. Together, we'll assess what's working, what's not, and what adjustments are needed to keep you on course.

In addition, we'll equip you with the tools and techniques necessary to plan for the future. How can you anticipate and prepare for the next 3, 5, even 10 years? We'll explore innovative approaches to ensure sustained growth across people, processes, and technology.

Join us as we re-calibrate, refocus, and re-energize our journey towards sustainable growth. Your tomorrow starts today — let's navigate it together and make every moment count.
