4 Leadership Lessons to Get You Through Q1

Q1 has a way of testing leadership fast.

Pressure shows up early, deadlines tighten, and decisions stack up quickly.

This week’s edition of This Week in Culture is “4 Leadership Lessons to Get You Through Q1”, pulled directly from conversations at our Surrender to Lead Summit.

I also want to give credit to three leaders whose insights shaped this piece: Scott Wine, Janna Salokangas, and John Barrand.

Scott shared a powerful reminder about accountability and ownership, and what it takes to give people real responsibility without getting in their way. Janna put language to something many leaders are navigating right now: the world changed faster than most leadership training did. And John captured what becomes the difference-maker under pressure, trust, built deliberately so teams can move with speed and confidence when the stakes rise.

If you’re heading into Q1 with a full plate, I hope this edition helps you lead with clarity and steadiness.
