This post was originally published on 4/19/19 and has been updated and republished on 3/13/24. As spring approaches, I itch to plant and get my hands in the dirt! I have been a coach and consultant in private practice since 2011, and my experience has taught me several things. All of them are similar to tending a garden.
You do not have to be a solopreneur for this garden metaphor to resonate. Your professional garden represents relationships, projects, work streams, divisions, and responsibilities. As Spring descends, consider not only what you plant in your actual garden at home but also your professional one. Is your garden growing by design, or is it accidental? What needs pruning or watering? Is the soil ready for something new? |
