Goal Setting for 2022: Are You Ready to Tackle the One-Word Challenge?

As I enter the holiday season, I find myself reflecting on this past year and anticipating the new year to come. Two years ago, I challenged the Onex leadership team to come up with one word as their goal for the year. This exercise sounds easy but actually takes a lot of thought. First, write all your goals for the new year. Then, look for themes that emerge. I remember a construction project manager telling me his word was “help.” I assumed since he was so busy he meant that he needed more staff. It turns out he was thinking of succession planning and helping others learn and grow in their careers.
