Greg and Allister dicuss the value and need to look back at how we have come to the table for discussions and meetings. Sometimes transaction by transaction we can get insight into how we show up and perhaps what we need to declare or change. A good healthy conversation is had by the TNR crew which hopefully flows out into each of our days.

The new idea has arrived...maybe with a new Manager. Lots of hype and maybe not enough thought? Join Greg and Allister as they discuss the approach and impact of grandiose ideas, and the people that bring them. Greg confesses to being that guy once or twice and Allister gets labeled a party pooper/planner. Who are you and do you do this? Or are you the character the ignores the whole thing and waits it out till the next manager arrives?

Are you one of the people who get lost in all the changes, fuss, or busy nature of the organization? New people, new approaches, people leaving, people being walked out, managers who don’t know their People or just the craziness all play a part in estranging segments of our organization. Greg and Allister have a good long talk, from their new home at Staples Studio-Oakville, about the people that are or feel lost. Many of these people are so important, but we might not realize how talented, necessary, knowledgeable, and essential they are to the teams they serve.
