2025: What’s In and Out

Share:

Happy January! As is now our tradition, my family and I spent New Year’s Eve making and sharing our In and Out lists. It feels less overwhelming than resolutions and easier to reference throughout the year.

I’ve updated a list for all of you:

What’s In:

Action
IRL
Talking
Thinking and learning
AI as a smart team member
Innovation
Proactive issues management
Big risks, big rewards
Delivering business outcomes
Growth
Possibility

What’s Out:

Waiting
Virtual
Texting, email and Slack
Busy
AI as a time suck
Disruption
Permacrises
Playing it safe
Counting impressions and AVEs
Flat
Negativity

I’m sorry to see the holidays end but I love this time of year—it’s wonderful to have a fresh start, and, in these early days of January, anything is possible. Let’s make it happen!

Best,
Kim Sample
