From the Desk of Katriina Takha, Founder & CEO
August is a turning point. After the financial year closes, it’s easy for teams to slip into autopilot. But that’s not what strong leaders do. This month, we’re focusing on leadership that resets, re-engages, and re-commits—so your people don’t just stay—they move forward. It’s time to check the compass and lead with intention.
Feature Topic / This Month’s Focus
Reset & Recommit: Leadership Beyond the Mid-Year Mark
August is more than a “settling in” period—it’s a test of culture, clarity, and momentum. If your top performers are disengaging, or high-potential talent is stalling, now’s the time to realign and re-ignite. Strong leadership in Q1 sets the tone for the rest of the year.
