The Trust Factor
Is it really fair to say, “I don’t trust that person”? Is it the total person that we choose to deny our trust? Or is it that we don’t trust certain behaviors the person displays? Said differently, “we have learned to actually TRUST that person to consistently behave in certain specific ways. Learning to TRUST people to “show up being themselves” requires much more of us as leaders than a blatant choice of “not trusting.” It requires that we assess all that we see, hear, and experience, and harvest the garden of others for behaviors that are useful for the whole of our teams, or those behaviors that will infect our team’s productivity and attitudes. In other words, THE TRUST FACTOR allows us to TRUST everyone to be exactly who they are!

Letter to Leaders
THIS LETTER IS DEDICATED TO GREAT LEADERS WHO HAVE LEFT THEIR THUMB PRINT ON MY LIFE: We have been blessed to work alongside of truly great leadership. These thoughts come from the experience of co-creating with our Leaders. As one has often said, “Our customers vote with their legs and their wallets.” It is our constant “opportunity” to deliver the WOW in all our services. This requires great leadership that focuses on action over position. Our greatest success comes as “exceeding expectations” becomes a way of life.

It's All About Relationships
“Let me know when you’re ready and I’ll start the clock." This is a common statement we make when we present our teams with “their first team challenge.” Invariably teams interpret “you” as themselves individually. They immediately divide into small pairs or groups to complete their task. The result is low scores in efficiency, accountability, appreciation, integrity, and quality. Only as we perform together as ONE TEAM do we experience high scores.
