Ray Oldenburg's "The Great Good Place" introduces the concept of the "third place," a social environment separate from the two usual environments of home (the "first place") and work (the "second place"). Here's how to make your brewery a 3rd Place https://lnkd.in/eZTgC4Td

Two things I learned while visiting a small town in the south of Albania. This weekend I visited a small town called Permet, a wonder of nature for sure. A town with history is built in front of the Vjosa River, a wild river that has carved the ecosystem around. And to mention the food! It was phenomenal. Never enjoyed traditional food this much. But that is where I got my lessons, eating! We sat to eat at a small traditional restaurant in the city center, called "Sofra Permetare" where as soon as we walked in we were welcomed with kindness and served so well. The owner told us what to eat and we enjoyed it a lot. We talked about the city and the business. I asked him: "While your dishes are so good, why don't you invest in making the place bigger to serve more people?" He told me that: "I have 12 tables to serve in total. All who come here are served with care and most importantly quality meals. While wanting to expand I can't expect to keep the same quality dishes because I will focus on quantity not quality." Loved his answer, it resonated a lot with me. The second story began when he suggested a place where to get "Gliko" a traditional recipe of this small town. Once we did go there the owner of the place offered us a bottle of wine for free before we even bought anything. Somehow, immediately we felt the need to buy more than what we planned. And so did we. While driving back home I was thinking of these experiences, 1. Quality over quantity. 2. Offer something free. The first one is a no-brainer, I've been practicing this for as long as I remember, and not taking more than 3 projects at a time is a rule for me. I need to ensure that everything I work on is good and matches the expectations. Also, I need to feel good myself when working on a project, and not stressed. Offering something free beforehand is something I don't usually encounter, but makes a lot of difference. I'll try to involve this more in my work culture. First, it doesn't have to be material. It could be a consultation, advice, or idea about something. With this, I wish you a great week forward. Tell me, what practices can make a big difference in the business? #business #lifelesonss #tips #design #service

Team building at its finest... said no one ever. Mango parties, pizza gatherings, and the occasional game of "who can tolerate the most awkward icebreaker". Because, clearly, what every team needs is more forced small talk, cringe-worthy trust falls, and stomachaches from eating one too many slices. Meanwhile, in other parts of the world, teams are building trust through meaningful conversations, collaborative projects, and actual teamwork. But hey, who needs personal growth when you can have a slice of pizza and a mango? - Sir Skeptical #TeamBuildingFail #Pakistan #MangoParty #SarcasmMode #DisappointedButNotSurprised"

Competition or Collaboration? Let's compare two towns, each one has: - 4 cafes - all independently owned - all about the same size, similar locations You visit town A and see signs in the windows of these cafes: - Cafe 1 - 2 for 1 coffees - Cafe 2 - half price coffee - Cafe 3 - happy hour coffee - Cafe 4 - free muffin with every coffee It's a very competitive cafe market in town A Then you go to town B and see these offers in each cafe: - Cafe 1 - Mother & baby play pen availabe - Cafe 2 - Senior citizens winter warmer deal - Cafe 3 - National barista champion serving - Cafe 4 - Locally sourced 'farmers breakfast' Now, there's lots of information missing, but think about these questions: - What strikes you about what you experience in each town? - Which town do you think has the most profitable "cafe industry"? - Which town woud you rather operate in, town A or town B?
