FIVE CARD HAND
1) Focus is on Process and People Improvement, and Accountability. -Never failing means you probably didn`t try something new...Failing isn`t the problem; Having the same failure repeatedly is unacceptable.-
2) Great Success in both Start-Up as well as Turn-Around situations -Start up is often easier but turn-around is often more fulfilling-
3) Quality and Morale are always prominent, even after bad news or stress. -So often bad news is given without a truthful explanation...That is what causes the fall out, not the news.-
4) Innovative Always trying to be more competitive in the marketplace. -No! - Just means you`re not willing to or are too lazy to try.-
5) I learned a long time ago, it`s impossible to have fun while going broke --- I ALWAYS find a way to have fun.
