Happy holidays to Impact’s clients, coaches, and friends

The last few years have been pivotal for me and for Impact, as they’ve been for most of our clients. Living with the global pandemic and its new ways of working, like so many of the organizations we work It’s been a busy year for me and the team. There was lots of change after many years of status quo. While some changes were good, many we had no control over – like shutdowns, staffing issues, and major client adjustments.

And we’re hearing the same from you. It’s been a challenging year. Everyone is ready for a well-deserved break. 

This is why the end of the calendar year is the perfect time for renewal – we get a mental time-out and a chance to reflect on the past. We get to decide to make next year amazing.

Let’s do just that.

Looking back on Impact Coaches in 2024, I see a lot of hard work and time spent breaking new ground. Some of it was scary. And tiring. It made me appreciate taking breaks along the way. From on-sites with our people to summer getaways at the cottage, moments with clients and friends always helped me recharge for the next challenge.

That’s how we should look at the December holidays – a chance to renew our energy and spend time with the people we love. Impact will close our offices for a week so we all can take a break and focus on what’s most important to us. Reflect on and learn from the past, and then leave it there. Understand what we can control and give ourselves permission to blue sky what we want to do next.

And hit the ground running in 2025 in a positive, renewed, and innovative way.

We’re proud of some new offerings we’ll have in the new year. We’re looking forward to bringing these to you and really partnering together. We think you’re going to love it.

Until then, we hope you get the chance to recharge and refresh over the holidays, too. All of us at Impact are looking forward to seeing you in the new year and working with you to make 2025 inspiring, engaging, and successful.
