Everyday Evolutions – Kick-Start Your Team in 2025 with Purpose

Can you believe we are in February!

With last year long gone in the rear-view mirror and 2025 stretching ahead, now is the perfect time to reflect, refocus, and set your intentions for the year to come.

Last year, for many, was filled with growth, opportunities, and lessons learned—valuable insights we can use to propel ourselves forward in 2025.

At the start of a new year, it's natural for people to feel ready to make the changes they've been putting off. A fresh year often feels like a clean slate, inspiring action.

But here’s the thing: why wait for a new year to evolve or do things differently?

Instead of setting New Year’s Resolutions, I believe in Everyday Evolutions—a mindset of continual growth and reflection. Reassessing where we are, setting new goals, and making changes is something we can do at any time. Regular reviews throughout the year help us stay aligned, energised, and on track.

That said, February is a fantastic time to pause and reflect.

Asking yourself (and your team) a few simple yet thought-provoking questions can set the tone for a re-energised and intentional start to the year.

Here are six impactful questions to help you kick-start your 2025 with purpose:

What am I doing that I enjoy, and how can I do more of it?
What could I change or do differently to achieve my goals and be where I want to be?
What or who do I need to say “no” to? (Consider creating a “no” list to align your actions with your values and boundaries.)
What do I stand for? What don’t I stand for?
What lessons or gifts from 2024 can I bring into my work and life this year?
What is my BIG word for 2025? (Choose a word that reflects your values, goals, and aspirations for the year. Examples could include Balance, Focus, Collaboration, Well-being, Simplicity, Growth, or Empowerment.)

“Action springs not from thought but from a readiness for responsibility.”
– Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Answering these questions is just the first step. The real magic happens when you commit to action. Use your responses to create small, consistent habits and rituals that foster sustainable change. It’s not about chasing quick wins but building lasting transformations.

Sustainable changes, not just obtainable ones, are what truly make a difference.

Once you've reflected, consider sharing your answers with a trusted peer or incorporating this as a team exercise. Discussing your goals and insights with others encourages accountability and can spark fresh ideas for collaboration and growth.

At RG Dynamics, we are excited to partner with you to make 2025 a year of continued success and limitless possibilities.

Together, let’s make this year exceptional.

Lead to be limitless.

Accelerate Growth – Transformational Programs for Leaders and Teams in 2025

It feels like time has flown since the Christmas break, and many of our clients are already mapping out their development strategies for leaders and teams.

How are you accelerating your leaders and teams this year?

For over 19 years, RG Dynamics has trained and coached thousands of leaders and executives across 24+ industries through our tailored, transformational programs. Our programs focus on cohorts of leaders (from emerging to senior) and teams within organisations seeking growth and an immersive experience where the learning sticks and is brought to life back on the job.

Having worked across diverse industries, we’ve encountered common challenges and opportunities, allowing us to bring a rich knowledge and experience to your organisation. We are renowned for our passion for learning, thought-provoking content, and the energy and commitment we bring to every program we deliver.

When I founded RG Dynamics in 2006, my sole purpose was to help create exceptional workplaces where people thrive, feel purposeful, and contribute by doing what lights them up.

Why development must be a journey, not a one-off event.

Development should be an ongoing journey, not just a “sugar hit” that motivates participants, only to lose momentum when they return to their roles.

“Learning is an active process. We learn by doing.

Only knowledge that is used sticks in your mind.”

– Dale Carnegie

At RG Dynamics, we’ve delivered over 4,000 programs. Every engagement begins with understanding your needs and organisational objectives aligned with your capabilities. We validate these through a pre-program diagnostic to solidify focus areas, content, and delivery modes.

Winning three prestigious leadership awards in 2024, the constant feedback was that our tailored process made our clients feel like we were part of their business, delivering original bespoke solutions that create change and motivate high performance and a culture of connection.

Reflections, Resilience and Renewal

I hope you had an amazing Christmas and found time to rest, reset, and prepare for the new year.

As 2025 begins, it’s the perfect moment to reflect on the year that was and carry forward its lessons and growth. Too often, we finish a year, take a short break, and then jump straight back on the treadmill of doing. But the challenges and successes we experience are powerful opportunities for transformation—if we make time to review, release, and recalibrate.

A Year of Growth and Resilience

At RG Dynamics, 2024 was an extraordinary year for me, personally and professionally. It was, without doubt, one of the most challenging yet rewarding years in my 18 years of business.

Diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer in April, I endured eight months of chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation. Today, I’m thrilled to share that I am cancer-free (yay!). While I continue three-weekly treatments until March, my focus is now on rebuilding my physical strength and overcoming the residual effects of treatment.

Through it all, I stayed fully present in my work—fuelled by my passion and purpose.

Despite the health challenges, I am deeply proud of what we achieved:

Being cancer free!!!Receiving our fourth USA award for my book, Gift MindsetGift Mindset, translated and published in VietnamBeing named 2024 Leadership Coach of the YearWorking with hundreds of leaders & teams in 12 different industriesRolling out our Limitless Leader’s program in 6 countriesWinning the 2024 Leadership Award from MBNBecoming a finalist in the Optimism and Wellbeing category

These awards are not just personal milestones; they reflect the consistent values and behaviours my team and I bring to leadership. It’s rewarding to see our contributions recognised and know we’re making a real difference.

Lessons That Shaped Me

People often ask what my biggest lessons were this year. As I reflect from the beach and write this, several gifts stand out—gifts that helped me navigate and even grow through adversity.

Mindset:

I reframed my illness as something “happening for me” rather than “to me.” This perspective empowered me to view adversity as an opportunity for growth. Focusing on what the experience could teach me made me hopeful and energised—even on the hard days. My medical team noted that my optimism and mindset likely played a role in my healing.

Optimism & Gratitude:

From the beginning, I believed I would come out the other side of this as a survivor. Rather than dwelling on what I’d lost, I stayed grateful for what I had. Each day, I focused on what I could do instead of what was temporarily out of reach, such as travel or evening events. This mindset kept me future-focused and grounded in what I could influence. Throughout and now, I have been so grateful for my amazing team.

Owning my Journey:

While some advised me to step back from work, I knew continuing would be part of my healing. My work fuels me, and I chose to embrace my journey fully—bald head, wigs, turbans, and all (I have 58 turbans!). I even found joy in experimenting with new looks, reminding me that our challenges can also be opportunities to express creativity.

Living my Purpose:

Staying connected to my purpose kept me anchored. My work—helping leaders and teams thrive—is a central part of who I am. While some clients felt uncomfortable working with someone battling cancer, most embraced my authenticity. I realised that being open and honest allowed me to attract those aligned with my values.

The Power of Support:

The outpouring of love and support from my network was incredible. My natural inclination as a giver made receiving help difficult initially, but I’ve learned the importance of letting others show up for us. It’s a gift for both the giver and the receiver.

Celebrating the Small Wins:

This year taught me the value of pausing to celebrate. Whether it was a full night’s sleep or getting through treatment without fainting, these small victories built a reservoir of positivity I could draw on during tougher times.

Life is unpredictable, and change is constant.

We can either resist or embrace it, allowing the lessons to shape who we are and who we’re becoming.

As we step into 2025, I encourage you to reflect on:

What lessons from 2024 will you carry forward?What will you let go of to make space for growth?

I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Wishing you a limitless year of learning, growth, and being.

Lead to be Limitless.

Key Takeaways:

Jenny’s philosophy is that your business should be an enabler of a better life, rather than something that tethers you to it.

This shift allows you to focus on strategy instead of day-to-day operations.Having a clear understanding of profitability, margins, and cash flow empowers you to make better decisions and plan for sustainable growth.Avoid growth for growth’s sake. Be intentional with your scaling efforts. Ensure growth aligns with your personal goals and enhances your life, rather than adding unnecessary stress.Optimise your team. Evaluate your team’s roles, skillsets, and contributions to ensure you have the right people driving your business forward.Document and map core workflows to reduce bottlenecks, improve efficiency, and onboard team members effectively.Focus on the right clients. Analyse your customer base and prioritise high-value, profitable clients who align with your business objectives.

12 Questions To Reflect on 2024

Well, here we are at the end of another year!

An opportunity to reflect on and consider the year that was.

My question to you is, did you set an expectation early in the year, or did you face the year as it came?

This is a question I’ve asked many of my clients with varying responses.

How has your year been?

“Years end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instil in us.”
– Hal Borland

So why do we look back at the year that was?

A calendar year is an approximation of the number of days of the earth’s orbital period; following the Gregorian calendar, this is 365 days. This is what we follow, and as much as I believe in regular checkpoints to reflect, recharge and reset in life as we near the year’s end, it’s a good opportunity to reflect and be future-ready to delve into the new year with 20/20 vision!

I’ve always loved the number twelve since I was a child. I’m not sure why I have always referred to 12 tips and ideas in workshops and in writing, such as in my white paper, The 12 Superpowers.

The number twelve carries religious and magical symbolism and generally represents perfection and entirety, interesting, I think.

 

Reflecting on 2024…

On that note, I’ve devised 12 prompters to review the year that was. You can do this reflection individually or as a team; a great way to open up dialogue and share and promote human-centred leadership at work.

Take some time to reflect in order to refuel and reset for the new year – ask yourself the 12 questions. Note your responses and review them regularly.

What have been the Gifts you have unwrapped in 2024???

As always, we’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback.

Cognitive Bias or Connection – The Choice is Yours

Connection is a core human need; we are all wired to connect.

Connection is non-negotiable in the workplace, especially with increasing AI and a global skills shortage. Strong human relationships foster collaboration, innovation, and adaptability, ensuring teams leverage their skills while addressing gaps in expertise through knowledge sharing and mutual support.

Many factors stifle deep connective relationships and interactions, including cognitive bias.

In simple terms, bias can block us from being open to other people’s ideas, thoughts, experiences, and abilities. When we have a bias about anything, this means we have an unconscious or conscious tendency to favour or discriminate against certain individuals or groups based on personal preferences, stereotypes, or preconceived notions.

A few common ways it can manifest include:making everyday decisionshiring decisionspromotionscoachingsuccession planningdelegationtask assignmentsfeedback

A real-life example is that a leader may provide more opportunities to those who mirror their backgrounds, beliefs, or behaviours; this alone can hinder diversity and limit innovation.

Bias in leadership can also impact team morale, trust, and performance. It creates an unequal environment where certain individuals may feel undervalued or overlooked.

From my experience, for leaders (or anyone) to be effective, they must identify and address their biases, promoting fairness and inclusion. This involves self-reflection, seeking diverse perspectives, and making decisions based on objective criteria rather than assumptions. Cultivating awareness around bias will help you, as a leader, foster a more equitable and productive workplace.

The cost of negative bias is huge and can lead to disconnection by distorting perception, reinforcing stereotypes, and hindering open communication. Misjudgements and assumptions limit understanding, creating barriers to trust, collaboration, and inclusive relationships in the workplace.

It’s like opening a can of worms when we explore the diverse array of existing biases.

In this article, we will focus on some common ones that we expand on in our leadership and communication programs.

Confirmation Bias

This is when we seek out information that reaffirms our existing beliefs. In doing so, we tend to ignore information that contradicts our beliefs, which can lead us toward untruths.
An example would be listening to news sources or social media that present stories that support our views or ideas.

The Halo Effect

This bias occurs when an initial impression of a person tends to influence our overall impression of them. It is also known as the “physical attractiveness stereotype” or the “what is beautiful is ‘good’ principle.”

Thinking that people who are good-looking are also smarter and maybe nicer than less attractive people is an example of this playing out.

The Self-Serving Bias

This is where we may tend to give ourselves credit for successes but tend to blame failures on outside causes when things go wrong.

For example, at work, we could be completing a successful project that we contribute to our hard work, but when things go the other way, we may think it’s bad luck or the fault of something or someone else outside us.

The Optimism Bias

This is where there may be a tendency to overestimate the likelihood that good things will happen to us while underestimating the probability that negative events will impact our lives.

In a nutshell, we may tend to be too optimistic for our own good.

An example could be not performance managing someone who needs it because we only see the good in that person.

Conformity Bias

Conformity bias occurs when we simply conform to the opinions and behaviours of others, even when these are against our own opinions, values, and personal beliefs.

An example of this bias may include verbally agreeing with others as much as we know we have an inner conflict about this. It can also take the form of not speaking up and sharing our ideas and thoughts as we are fearful of the response or rejection we may receive.

Gender Bias

This bias occurs when we hold stereotypical or negative attitudes towards people based on gender. This results in unequal opportunity and negative treatment of others, as well as hindering our ability to work with and socialise with others.

When we treat people differently based on their gender or make untrue assumptions about them, this is gender bias playing out.

Any type of bias exists in our minds and can exist any time of day and
anywhere, including in and out of the workplace.

Take the time to identify personal biases by reflecting on your attitudes, preferences, and beliefs and look at how past experiences, culture, and upbringing shape have shaped your views.

Ensure you seek different perspectives by engaging with people from different backgrounds, cultures, or opinions and listen to or read articles and viewpoints that challenge your beliefs.

Above all, pay attention to your reactions to others and your judgments. It is a continuous process rather than a one-time effort so self-access is ongoing.

I’d love to hear what came up for you.

64. Human First, Digital Second: The Secret To Serve and Connect in a Digital Age with Jaquie Scammell

In this episode of the Limitless Leaders podcast, we're thrilled to have Jaquie Scammell, Founder and CEO of ServiceQ, an organisation that is dedicated to helping organisations take that leap from delivering ordinary service to extraordinary. ServiceQ help Service Leaders reimagine service in their business and encourage them to start with looking at themselves first.

Jaquie is a close friend and she works with a broad range of industries and sectors all seeking to strengthen the relationships with those they serve.

You can watch the podcast here, click the image below, or listen on your favourite platforms.

 

Key Take Aways:

Jaquie believes that wisdom is not from knowledge – it's from experiences of applying that knowledge and it's seen mostly when we allow our human qualities to be seen and get out of our head and drop into our heart.

Genuine human interactions, such as remembering a customer's name, provide businesses with a unique competitive edge.To navigate the future of work, particularly with AI's growing role, it's critical that service professionals focus on building emotional and social intelligence.Leaders often misinterpret others because they haven’t fully understood or managed their own emotions first.Humans are multi-dimensional – we’re not just bodies with brains. Leaders need to address all of these dimensions to truly support their teams.Delivering extraordinary service begins with self-awareness and a commitment to personal growth.As leaders, we need to slow down, reflect, and take time to deeply understand ourselves, so that we not only create the right conditions for others but also embody the values and actions we promote.The shift from traditional, fast-paced leadership to a more mindful, reflective approach is part of the natural evolution in the workplace.

How Inclusive Is Your Leadership Style?

Inclusivity is a word that we hear about a lot and for good reason.

We need to foster inclusive leadership in any role, and in particular leadership roles where you lead by example and motivate others.

When looking at what Inclusive leadership is, in a nutshell, it’s a style of leadership that focuses on fostering diversity, equity, and belonging that ensures everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to contribute.

Inclusive Leadership:Emphasises diversity, equity, and belongingValues diverse (all) perspectives for innovationCreates openness and psychological safety (a safe space)Includes empathy, fairness, and self-awarenessAssists in promoting engagement, productivity and successDrives innovation through diverse perspectivesMakes people feel important and heardFosters trust, fairness, and collaborationEnhances engagement, productivity, and retention

Diversity focuses on the makeup of the workforce. It includes factors such as demographics, age, gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, experience, values, and diversity of strengths and motivation. Inclusion, on the other hand, is a measure of culture that enables diversity to thrive.

When we think about it, diversity is about the ‘what’ whilst
inclusion is about the ‘how’.

Research shows that greater diversity in the workforce results in greater profitability and value creation. The same holds true at the executive level, as McKinsey research revealed. They found a statistically significant correlation between diverse leadership and better financial performance. Companies in the top quartile for ethnic diversity at the executive level are 33 percent more likely to have above-average profitability than companies in the bottom quartile. When it comes to gender diversity, companies in the top quartile are 21 percent more likely to have above-average profitability than companies in the bottom quartile.

By leveraging what makes us different, we can complement skills gaps, experience, opinions, and backgrounds. When we appreciate diversity in the workplace, we can become a dream team.

The most Inclusive Leaders I know actively seek diverse perspectives and understand that varied experiences and viewpoints lead to more innovative solutions and stronger performance. This approach helps create a culture of openness and psychological safety, encouraging team members to share ideas and challenge norms without fear of judgment. They practice empathy, fairness, and transparency, making decisions that consider the input of all voices. We all have something to share, and we should all be heard and included.

The key elements of inclusive leadership include self-awareness, humility, and a commitment to continuous growth. Leaders acknowledge their own biases and work to overcome them, striving for an equitable environment where everyone has the same opportunity to succeed.

I believe and know it to be true that when leaders embrace diverse perspectives and leverage them, this drives innovation and stronger performance and encourages open communication and collaboration.

This leadership style promotes equity, fairness, and trust, leading to higher employee engagement, productivity, and retention, which ultimately enhances business success in a diverse and interconnected world.

Limitless Leaders™ Connection – GIFT MINDSET® The perfect team gift for 2025

As we reflect on this time last year, a lot has changed for all of us.

Overall, people have grown in more ways than one through different experiences and situations in or out of work. Personally, being diagnosed with breast cancer is a challenge I never thought I’d be experiencing. I am clear of cancer now and still have many more treatments to go, but having a strong mindset and doing what lights me up helped me on my healing journey.

 Challenges teach us what is possible, and successes get us to go that one step further.

The lessons from these experiences can make a difference in our lives and others. As I call them, these lessons or gifts can come in many forms; we must be open to seeing them. They come from people and situations and can be from the past, the present or the future. By adopting the Gift Mindset®, we get to live our legacy now by sharing these lessons and creating a workplace culture of purpose, connection and contribution.

To embrace these gifts, we need to raise awareness, accept these lessons and apply the gifts they present both in and out of the workplace.

We need, in other words, to adopt and foster a Gift Mindset®.

Our gifts can fall into 12 key categories, “The 12 Gifts”, which are the soft skills we need to deepen and build upon in any role. Too often, hard skills (technical) become the focus, and now more than ever, we need to unwrap and reveal the 12 Gifts.

The Gift Mindset® is now a four-time award-winning book that has been translated and published in India, Vietnam and the Middle East. Available in hard copy, Kindle and audio and is the perfect team gift for 2025.

This book is for you…if you want to embrace challenges and successes and unwrap and share the gifts withinif you want to create a team and workplace culture of openness, connection and collaborationif you are caught up in the “doing” of life and need to reflect on the “gifts that have got you to where you are nowif you would like to build on key life skills and explore the 12 key gifts to incorporate these into your life and leadershipif you are ready to deepen your self-awareness and acceptance of life's lessons and share these to contribute to othersif you are ready to break down the barriers, you may face and reap the benefits

If you are looking for a great way to ramp up the gift of connection, growth and gratitude within your workplace, then give your team the gift of the Gift Mindset® to kick-start 2025.

You can bulk order by emailing admin@reneegiarrusso.com

In this thought-provoking book, I teach you how to adopt the Gift Mindset to learn from these experiences and appreciate them as gifts. Many workplace cultures are transactional and performance-focused; adopting a Gift Mindset® culture promotes openness, connection and collaboration.

The stories, interviews, insights and practical tools can be easily applied to take your life, leadership and organisation to the next level.

Are you ready to unwrap your gifts? Please contact admin@reneegiarrusso.com for bulk orders.
