This is part of my Get better Friday, all about being a better leader. Each piece is about me describing what I’ve been practicing to help me become a better leader and coach for my team, my career and my personal life. This week: To accomplish anything requires a vision of what success looks before you begin. After, you have a mix of objectives, goals and tactics that will eventually be the work that will lead you to that vision. The difference between objectives, goals and tactics. We often  conflate the three together, mixing tactics with goals or interpreting  an objective as a tactic. When you work with a vision in mind, setting objectives that help  push you to that vision will make setting goals and tactics easier.  Everyday you need to ask yourself, “Is this getting me closer to my  vision? To my life or career objectives?” Contact me Would love to hear from you on this topic! Email: obscurednarration@gmail.com Twitter: @domcorriveau Need even more?
