This is the time of year when company leaders are solidifying plans for the fourth quarter and looking ahead to the new year. October through mid-December are statistically the most productive weeks of the year.

There are two very simple strategies that will ensure you and your company finish this year well and begin the next year prepared and ready.
- The first is to establish 1-3 main goals that will be your priorities.
- The second is to prepare for the onslaught of challenges, changes, and distractions that will try to pull you away from those priorities.
