Thinking

I am reading a book called "The Milkshake Moment" by Steven S. Little that I picked up in the airport in Chicago last week. It is a book about "overcoming stupid systems, pointless policies, and muddled management to realize real growth".

Little called by some "The Growth Guru" gives some great growth insights in this book. It starts with a personal story of frustration over poor customer service. Stories, examples, and advice are given to help practical leadership growth occur.

Here are some "extra toppings" as he calls them that I grabbed today...

• Accept that tension is inherent in any organization
• Recognize that the information age rewards thinking
• Don't waste your time managing the cash cow
  

Thinking is one of the values that we hold at FRC. Values are vital to any organization. It is confirming and motivating when you read, hear, or see the values you hold being lifted and used.

What are the values that you or the organization you are a part of hold. Are you living them out?

Do you see the people around you living them out?

If you can answer yes to these questions then go get a milkshake and celebrate!
