Having swapped comments on my blow w/ you, I apologize for being slow to welcome you to EEN.

Glad to have you with us. Eager to learn more about how you fit your ICM role and EE together.

True about Rugby - I guess like engagement in organisations, its something that has built over years of success stories and wins. The downside though now in NZ is that when our rugby team doesnt win , the nation mourns somewhat and forgets the good times. Again like in business. Mmm some parallels there that I may use - thanks for the brain prompt.

Regarding the small cultures, its something I'm finding to be a strength in our business. The team spirit and engagement can be really high in some teams but not consistent across the business, so I'm working hard to get people to share what they do that works. Take a solution focus.

But how do you engage the population so strongly in Rugby that you create such a powerful team year after year?

I imagine we share much in comment yet I think engagement also resides not just in nations or cultures but within the small cultures of each organization.

Darryl,

I appreciate you being the first member from New Zealand. I hope you find what you are searching for here and that you will also offer us a Kiwi perspective on the topic.

Let’s share favorite quotations that are somehow relevant to business. I frequently include them in letters, e-mails, proposals, and book reviews. They may not always provide a head-snapping revelation but do add some “seasoning” to the prose.

Having turned around four separate management disasters, I am quite familiar with what you are facing. The only way that employees become cynical and obstreperous is for management to mistreat them and disrespect them. The only way to correct this...

CNN gave the passage of the bill one-third the space on its home page that it gave “New mom inspired to lose 71 pounds.” Is the United States apathetic to the cause? Are we doubting its reality? What do you think? We have a Focus Community member...

Jon Kabat-Zinn once wrote: You can't stop the waves but you can learn to surf. I saw the video on Patti Digh's 37 days site and thought it would make a nice video for a 5 minute period of disengagement before engaging in new work.
