As the year winds down, it’s a great time to pause and reflect on what worked, what didn’t, and where you want to grow in the year ahead. But let’s be honest: reflection without action often stays just that—reflection. As we’re big believers in taking action, we created Replay and Reset for 2025, a simple yet powerful activity to help you turn your reflection into actionable steps.
This isn’t just about making resolutions—it’s about creating a clear, prioritized playbook for yourself. And if your whole team does it, you’ll have a powerful foundation to come together, share your playbooks, and align for success in 2025.
Why Replay and Reset Works
Reflection is important, but it’s only the first step. To make meaningful progress, you need to connect your insights to clear actions. Replay and Reset guides you through this process, with a focus on three fundamental areas:
- Communication: What worked well in how you connected with others this year? What could have been better?
- Collaboration: Did you work well with others, or were there obstacles that got in the way?
- Culture: How did you contribute to building trust, transparency, and shared values in your team?
These are the foundations of strong teams and successful careers, but they often get overlooked in the day-to-day rush. By reflecting on these areas and setting goals for improvement, you’ll enter 2025 with a clear sense of direction—and the motivation to make it happen.
Take It to the Next Level
Here’s the best part: Replay and Reset isn’t just for you. Imagine if your entire team took 30 minutes to complete this activity and then came together to share their playbooks. It’s an opportunity to align on what matters most, celebrate wins, and tackle challenges as a group.
At Same Team, we’re doing this ourselves. On this week’s High Five podcast, we’re sharing how this activity helped us uncover blind spots, celebrate moments of growth, and set priorities for the year ahead.
