Spring is here! I love this time of year—flowers are blooming, new growth is emerging, and the energy of renewal is all around us. But in business, growth isn’t limited to just one season—it can happen every day.
At Leaders Team, we embrace this mindset by treating each quarter as a new opportunity to grow, refine, and realign. Instead of relying solely on annual plans, we plan in 90-day cycles to ensure continuous progress.
Why Quarterly Planning?
Quarterly planning keeps businesses grounded in real-time performance while staying flexible enough to adapt. In today’s fast-paced world, unexpected challenges arise, and long-term plans can quickly become outdated. By reviewing goals every 90 days, you stay responsive, proactive, and aligned with your vision.
If you’ve been operating on an annual planning cycle, consider the benefits of quarterly planning:
- Increases accountability—Clear, short-term goals make performance easier to measure.
- Enhances agility—Frequent check-ins reveal when it’s time to pivot.
- Creates momentum—A 90-day sprint fosters focus, urgency, and achievement.
The Power of Weekly Execution
Quarterly planning isn’t a new concept, but its true power lies in how it drives weekly execution. As Brian Moran highlights in The 12-Week Year and Ryan Deiss explores in Get Scalable, breaking goals into weekly milestones creates a stronger sense of focus, urgency, and accountability. When teams operate on a weekly cadence, their relationship with time shifts—deadlines feel more immediate, priorities become clearer, and overall efficiency improves.
Accountability: The Game-Changer
One of the biggest leadership lessons I’ve learned is that accountability reveals alignment. When people are authentically committed to the vision of the organization, they embrace accountability as a tool for growth. They want to perform, be accountable, and take ownership of their results. It creates a kind of alignment and aliveness with them.
On the other hand, resistance to accountability can signal misalignment and provide an opportunity for deeper conversations. As a leader, having the courage to hold people accountable exposes areas for growth, helping you build a culture of transparency, integrity, and self-expression.
At Leaders Team, we foster environments where accountability isn’t about pressure—it’s about empowerment. When people are held to account in a way that aligns with their values, they experience:
- Greater clarity—Knowing exactly where they stand.
- Increased reliability—Seeing their words and commitments translate into results.
- Personal growth—Developing the power to fulfill on what matters most, have their word be more reliable, and act with integrity.
