Taking a holistic approach to goals this year
As a small business, it’s important to set business goals such as cutting operational costs, boosting profitability, hiring talent, improving customer satisfaction, and more. However - alongside these business goals, it's equally important to nurture personal aspirations. Take, for example, Pramish from our Developer Team, who has set a goal to indulge in more reading – and no, the topic doesn't have to be strictly business-related!
Focusing on a community-focused goal can boost both your business ethos and social impact too. At Reckon, we've embraced this philosophy by volunteering at Our Big Kitchen. Together, we cook meals for disadvantaged Australians. By aligning our business with community service, we not only give back but also strengthen bonds within our team.
