Thought on Business: The importance of perspective
I thought to start a short series of Thoughts on Business that employ graphic images and some of my more favorite quotes.
The idea is to frame some of the illustrations of Square Wheels and The Search for The Lost Dutchman’s Gold Mine into some easy-to-understand ideas for workplace improvement. We do a lot of corporate team building and engage a lot of leadership into pretty good discussions about issues and opportunities. So, the idea is to pop up a few of the key quotes into easily remembered graphic images.
This one is about the need for perspective and change:
The Round Wheels are already in the wagon, but if you keep doing what you have been doing, you will continue to get the same results. The key is to “step back from the wagon” and involve and engage yourself and others to look at how things are working and what choices might be made to allow things to happen differently.

Do something differently,
For the FUN of It!
