Gifting experiences like the Central Montana Jazz Night to employees can significantly impact company culture in several ways: ✔️Bonding and camaraderie: Shared experiences create lasting bonds among team members. Attending events together allows them to connect on a personal level outside the office, fostering stronger relationships and teamwork. Recognition and appreciation: Offering experiences as gifts demonstrates a company's appreciation for its employees. It shows that the organization values their hard work and wants to reward them with memorable and enjoyable moments. ✔️Morale boost and stress relief: Taking a break from the usual routine for a fun and engaging event helps alleviate stress, boosting morale, and re-energizing employees. This can lead to increased productivity and a more positive work environment. ✔️Support for work-life balance: Encouraging employees to engage in enriching experiences outside work emphasizes the importance of work-life balance. It shows that the company cares about their well-being beyond the professional sphere. ✔️Building a positive employer brand: Providing unique experiences reflects positively on the company's employer brand. It can attract top talent, as prospective employees are drawn to organizations that prioritize employee happiness and holistic development. In essence, incorporating experiences like the Central Montana Jazz Night into a company's culture demonstrates a commitment to employee satisfaction, team cohesion, and a supportive work environment. It contributes to a more engaged, motivated, and connected workforce, ultimately benefiting the company's overall success and reputation, which is incredibly important in todays business landscape!

(intro to "Snakes For the Divine" by High On Fire kicks in) Your way of thinking is DEAD. My way of thinking is the certain and correct FUTURE. There is NO MIDDLE GROUND. Your favorite band SUCKS. Your local sports team SUCKS. You SUCK. (music fades out...) "Hi everyone! That covers our housekeeping for today's webinar. Today we're going to learn about..."

In a great month for concerts, I just saw U2 at the Sphere in Vegas and Queen* in Denver. (* Queen with Adam Lambert.  He’s no Freddie, but he sounded great!) The ticket prices were through the roof, so I took both shows seriously and did my homework by listening to Bono’s autobiography and re-watching the Queen movie. The experience reminded me that while almost every book about teamwork uses sports teams analogies, I’ve never heard anyone use rock bands. Both of these bands exemplify the whole being greater than the sum of their parts. Freddie Mercury was convinced by a ‘handler’ to go solo, but couldn’t create the same level of quality as Queen without the pushback and give and take of his bandmates. It’s the same with U2. All members have different strengths; Bono is a great lyricist and frontman, The Edge brings a unique sound, Larry Mullen is a great drummer, and he and Adam Clayton create an excellent rhythm section. Interestingly, both bands split all the money and songwriting credits evenly, so they encourage collaboration and remove egos from the final product. Isn’t that the perfect metaphor for teamwork? Imagine how much more productive offices could be if sales and service shared new and renewal revenue more evenly. Yes, we need the Bonos and Freddies of our companies to be motivated to do their thing and be the rainmakers, but can they really be their best without the team behind them? Could a more even commission distribution ultimately increase the size of the pie and compensation to everyone by fostering better teamwork, engagement, and motivation? What do you think?

Summer is here (regardless of whether the weather agrees!), and for those of us who live in Edinburgh, summer means a plethora of festivals are on their way! Some of the events we have to look forward to include Edinburgh Jazz and Blues Festival, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and Fringe by the Sea in North Berwick. But in addition to offering a smorgasbord of entertainment, these performances offer a wealth of suggestions for anyone who has to face an audience of any sort. Inspired by some of the shows I've seen over many years, here are 3 Simple Rules of the Stage for Presenters: ❤️ It’s all about the audience This might seem obvious but sometimes performers and speakers appear to forget that the whole reason they are in front of an audience, whether large or small, is because people are there to watch and listen to them. Therefore, it is important that you keep the audience in the forefront of your mind at all times to ensure that they can hear and see you properly, and that you are serving them in the best possible way. ❤️ You are in command When you are on stage, you are in control so make sure to take control and own the stage (without being diva-ish!) Arrive early, familiarise yourself with the environment and the equipment, know the stage, check the sight lines, do a sound check and make sure everything is as you require before you begin. Oh, and always make friends with the tech crew. ❤️ Find your light Professional stage performers will be very familiar with the term ‘find your light.’ When you are on a stage there will be certain areas that are well lit and other areas that may cast shadows across your face. To ensure your audience can see you, especially your facial expressions which are a crucial part of your communication, it is important to stand where you can feel the light on your face and in your eyes. If you have an opportunity to watch speakers on the stage before you, take note of where they are standing when they are in the best light and areas to avoid. In future posts I'll share more 'rules'; if you can't wait, I'll pop a link in the comments below to a blogpost I wrote with all 7 'rules' and a story about a jazz show I saw that inspired the post.
