The Leadership Reset: Closing out 2025, intentionally

By Steve · 20 October 2026

Great leadership doesn't grow in the noise of the day to day, it develops in reflection and quiet time.

Don't be that leader that moves straight from one year into the next without stopping. Developing the same habits and the same patterns simply repeating themselves - boring!

Commit to your Leadership Resolution and download your very own FREE 2025 Leadership Reflection. Subscribe to the Leadership Playbook to get it.

Leadership doesn't exist in isolation. It is impacted by your health and wellbeing, your friends, how you grow and develop, how you recover, connect, and manage stress. They all directly shape how you lead.

That's why this year-end reflection looks at: • you as a person • you as a leader • you and your team • and what you want 2026 to represent

How to use this over the break

You don't need hours. You don't need perfect answers.

A quiet coffee, a walk, or time in the morning where you can zone in.

Answer what stands out. Skip what doesn't. Let it be honest, not polished.

The aim isn't to fix everything, it's to become more aware of what matters most so you can celebrate your wins and take learnings into next year in both your personal and leadership life.

Inside the downloadable reflection you'll find: • a short set of leadership reflection questions • a team reflection lens • the Wheel of Life exercise • space to identify what you want to strengthen in 2026

Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I look forward to sharing some of my wins and learnings in the next Playbook.
