20 ways to improve your practice in 2021

With December around the corner, this is the time of year that we all start looking back at the year. Thinking about the successes and the failures and the lessons learned along the way.

Since we are a helpful bunch at Rochon & Associates, we have compiled a list of questions you can ask yourself to see where you might be able to make improvements in 2020. Getting goals in place now will allow you to determine the action steps you need to take to make them happen.
