Terry's Blog | Daily strategies, insights and inspiration to help you achieve your potential

Take The Time

It's easy to force yourself to assess when you lose. It's harder when you are winning. Hard, but equally necessary. 

High Performance Organizations

In high-performance organizations, there's no place for mediocrity. What about your organization?

Today's Workplace

Nearly 60% of employees are stressed at thier jobs every day. -Source, Gartner 

Assumptions

It is historical assumptions of what works that prevents organizations from generating new ideas. After all, you can't change your core beliefs about your organization or industry unless you change something in your perspective about your business, your industry, your customers, or yourself.

Organizational Freedom

The most important freedom an organization can grant their employees is the freedom to fail.

Risk-taking

Gallup's 2021 Great Jobs survey revealed that in the United States only 9% of nonmanagerial employees strongly agreed that they are free to take risks to improve products and services or solutions.

Complacency

Complacency kills future success.

Goals

When a business goal is too aspirational, it's bad for credibility.

Corporate Mindset

Don't use your company's age or industry as an excuse for mediocrity. There's no such thing as an average or old fashioned business, just average or old fashioned mental models. Choose to be great.

Complacency

Complacency breeds a blatant disregard for doing what's right. 

Culture Fit

When you bring someone into your organization, you should already have a good sense of how that person fits into the structure and can be successful within it.
