What is your uniqueness? And what is the beautiful uniqueness of someone else? (it could even be a someone you don't particularly like)

Whatever you may think of Lady GaGa's music, take a moment today to celebrate your own 'born this way' uniqueness. And then celebrate in some way just one other person's uniqueness. Go ahead. Give it a try. You'll both feel so much better.

What is yours to most fully create? - Round 1 Inquiry

From the place of Vision: What is the potential?
From the place of Intuition: What does is it feel like?
From the place of Truth: What are the dilemmas I am facing or will face?
From the place of Perspective: What do I need to see (that I may be missing just now)?

What's your thread?

The Way it is by William Stafford
There's a thread you follow. It goes among
things that change. But it doesn't change.
People wonder about what you are pursuing.
You have to explain about the thread.
But it is hard for others to see.
While you hold it you can't get lost.
Tragedies happen; people get hurt
or die; and you suffer and get old.
Nothing you do can stop time's unfolding.
You don't ever let go of that thread.

What is the Smell of the Place in the organization you are co-creating?

Are you complicit in creating a culture defined by Constraint, Compliance, Controls and Contracts? Or are you nurturing a vibrant enterprise defined by Stretch, Discipline, Trust and Support?

Watch this great video from the late professor Ghoshal, share it with colleagues, have a dialogue about it with your employees. Here's to Fontainebleau in Springtime!

What lights you up?
