## Resource

In this episode of 'Scaling New Heights: Leadership at the Next Level', host Nick Sellers reflects on his recent holiday break and shares insights on the importance of reflection that results in change. Change might be cutting something that's not serving you, or improving what can be done better. In any case, the willingness to change needs to be there. Nick discusses the critical need for self-assessment to improve professional and personal life, and announces a new 'Leadership Reset' series tailored for leaders feeling overwhelmed, high performers who've plateaued, or emerging leaders seeking confidence. Nick also invites listeners for a free discovery call or to take part in a special coaching offer. This episode emphasizes the importance of change and alignment for sustainable growth and leadership development. 00:00 Introduction and Personal Reflection 00:19 Welcome to Scaling New Heights Leadership 00:31 The Importance of Reflection 01:37 Evaluating and Making Changes 04:28 Leadership Reset Series Announcement 05:16 Coaching Opportunities and Final Thoughts 06:15 Upcoming Episodes and Subscription Reminder Useful links: Book an hour-long Introduction to Coaching session Find out more about The Leadership Reset 4-month programme Connect with Nick on LinkedIn Schedule a free discovery call Subscribe to my monthly motivation newsletter #ExecutiveCoaching #Leadership #LeadershipPodcast #PeopleFirstLeadership #Calm Leadership #ScalingNewHeights
