Wrapping Up the Week: What Should Leaders Do, What Actually Works?

Wrapping Up the Week: What Should Leaders Do, What Actually Works?

After 25+ years in business and now leading our team of 100 across 7 different entities at Best Practice Group, I've learned a thing or two about finishing the week strong. Here's what really works for us: 

1. Friday Team Wrap 

We keep it simple but meaningful. Everyone shares their wins and challenges from the week, and - this is important - everyone has to bring their worst joke to the table. You'd be amazed how these terrible jokes have become a highlight that brings the team together! 🤩

2. The Daily Success Tools 

My trusty daybook never leaves my side. It's old school, but there's something powerful about physically writing down your thoughts, plans, and actions. Friday afternoon is sacred for reviewing the week's notes and planning ahead. If you're not using a daybook yet, you're missing out on one of the simplest yet most effective business tools there is.

3. The Reality Check 

A quick moment to assess: Are we moving forward or just keeping busy? Some weeks aren't pretty, but it's better to face it head-on than kid ourselves. 

Asking yourself as a leader/director: ❓

  • What’s worked well this week? 
  • What could I have done differently/more effectively this week? 


4. Empowering the Team 

Learning to let go and trust your team is a game-changer. When you give people real responsibility (and actually let them run with it), they usually surprise you with what they can achieve. 

Then ask your team (each individual to reflect): 📝

  • What’s worked well this week? 
  • What could I have done differently/more effectively this week? 


5. Proper Downtime 

You can't pour from an empty cup. It took me years to learn this one, but now weekends are for recharging - no exceptions. 

What works for you? 

Always keen to hear how others wrap up their week! Please connect with me on social media and let me know your thoughts.
