Fun! It’s the New Core Value: This Month in Inc. Magazine
In the August 2007 edition of Inc. Magazine, the feature is on Morale Boosting activities. Leigh Buchanan, included a collection of advice from a variety of sources, including myself.
I like to see the proposal team taking a lead on these kinds of activities. It helps us because we are always on the asking end of the conversation, so it’s nice to be on the other end for a change. Leigh told about one of my favorite episodes, when George was asked to solicit updates for the resume and project summary databases. You can read it here.
She barely alluded to the biggest event which has outlived my tenure at 3 companies: The annual Halloween Chili Cookoff. You know you have an event that has gone “viral” when the email threats start flying in August about the secret ingredients they are growing at home for their winning pot of chili next October.
