Happy New Year Ohio Planners! The APA Ohio Board of Trustees wishes you all the best in the new year. We are incredibly thankful to have members like you and look forward to seeing more of your smiling faces in 2024. I sincerely hope you had time to recharge your batteries, reflect on your achievements in 2023, and plan for another year of creating great communities for all Ohioans. Whether you lead a large department with several staff or serve as a single-person department managing planning for a small locality, I encourage you to think about your personal and professional goals for the year. Do you have a strategic plan for your department? What does your annual work plan look like? How do you plan to improve processes within your organization? Can you do a better job engaging with the public? How can you foster better development for your community? What is one project you personally want to get done next year? Take some time to ask yourself these questions and more. Seek feedback on your performance from peers. Let’s make 2024 awesome!
