Look Beyond The Short Game

The Interesting Health & Safety Podcast

Living in the moment is important, but it's also wise to look ahead sometimes. In this week's show, Colin discusses why planning for the future is to be encouraged, especially as the new year approaches.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Looking at the longer game and challenging the business, examining the strategy and your goals, is crucial in order to keep the lifeblood of your business pumping.
• Businesses tend to be at their weakest and most fragile when we focus upon the day ahead instead of the months ahead.

BEST MOMENTS

'To be really successful, you've got to be challenging the business'

'The business is looking to you to fill that gap'
