How can it be Memorial Day weekend already? This holiday marks the unofficial start of summer, and it’s a time to reflect on the sacrifices of our fallen heroes. In my latest blog, I share my mantra of living with Wild Abandon – joyfully gathering with friends and family – and the importance of honoring Memorial Day. Check out my blog for more insights and reflections.

Remembering their courage, honor and bravery, today and every day. Happy Memorial Day 🇺🇸 #ServiceBrosCarpetCleaning #CarpetCleaning #VeteranOwned #SmallBusiness #IndianapolisCarpetCleaning #CleanFloors #UpholsteryCleaning #IN #GroutCleaning #AirDuctCleaning #TileCleaning #Sanitize

Honor a Veteran for Memorial Day On this Memorial Day, I am honoring my Uncle Romie who was a cook in the army. He was a Forest Ranger and dressed up as Smokey the Bear to do education programs for the local community. He would climb the fire tower and look for forest fires in the national forests. His fire tower was like the one in the photo. Uncle Romie looked for something to laugh about because he reported me to my Mom for hitting boys with my red purse on the playground in elementary school which was across the road from his fire tower. I know he saw this as a random act of kindness for the boys on the playground and for me, too. I did stop the behavior after my Mom explained this would limit my supply of purses. The biggest win you can have for your organization or business is to focus on what value your strategy creates for your customers, employees, and community. Like Uncle Romie, finding the good in things and the value you bring to others is one of the keys to developing your strategy. The value is in the eyes of the beholder. What can you start doing to communicate your value to the person you are presenting to or serving? What can you stop doing that does not add value to the person you are presenting to or serving? What new strategy can you create to honor a veteran in your community? What is a random act of kindness you can do today to honor a veteran in your life? #strategy #OwnYourValue #MemorialDay #RandomActofKindness Photo of a Fire Tower in East Texas.

Putting Personal Disputes Ahead of What’s Best for the Organization. Ref: https://lnkd.in/e8KHcYTf I came across a video 2013 presentation by Steve Knott, Army War College, discussing the Battle of Gettysburg, and the human dynamics behind J.E.B. Stewart's fateful ride around the Union Army. I would appreciate your comments on the following Steve Knott quote: “It's human nature; people will put interpersonal, frictions, tensions, rivalries ahead of what’s best for the organization. I don’t care if you work for IBM, the US Army, or the Confederate Army; people will do that. Nine times out of ten, they will put their own personal disputes ahead of what’s best for the organization. It’s something, as a senior leader, you always must be on guard to watch out for.” 1. Do you agree with Knott's observation? 2. How do you try to ensure that the good of the organization is placed ahead of the personal disputes of your subordinates?

If you sell into the fire apparatus industry, I highly encourage you to subscribe to Paul Darley's bi-monthly reports. There's lots of insight on trends in the fire apparatus space, including current lead times on new fire apparatus (some OEMs are forecasting 4+ year delivery times!). This beneficial information can help with your team's overall strategic planning and forecasting. #Darley
