Show Notes

How often do you reassess your priorities, either in your business or personal life?

In times of change or crisis, many of us make the mistake of keeping those plans and priorities the same. However, if the world/the business/your life has changed, shouldn’t those priorities change as well?

That’s the topic of discussion in this episode of The Learning Xchange podcast. Matthew Brown (Schoox’s VP of Learning and Brand Success) talks about the importance of setting priorities and regularly reassessing them.

Matthew says that while planning for the future is essential in business, things rarely stay exactly the same. When things change, it’s important to be flexible and revisit priorities. He also discusses the importance of talking to your team about goals,  and tasks and being honest. If there’s too much on your plate and you need help, talking to others can help you better prioritize tasks together.
