"Peak Performance: Lessons from the Wild This majestic zebra stands tall, surveying its domain from a rocky vantage point. Its stripes, a symbol of individuality and resilience, glisten in the sunlight. As professionals, we can draw parallels from this zebra's proud stance: Embrace our unique strengths and talents Stand firm in the face of adversity Reach new heights and survey our accomplishments with pride Just as the zebra's elevated perspective offers a broader view, our own professional growth and self-awareness can elevate us to new heights. #ProfessionalDevelopment #PeakPerformance #WildlifeInspiration"

I never thought that trying to explain what my role is in 1 minute can be so challenging. But I somehow managed! I really love my L&D role, as it's so diverse and I get to work with so many Owlstone employees, from experienced managers, to colleagues who are in the early stages of their career. Also, I have learnt so much in the last year and a half, and there is still so much to learn. Bring on the challenges! :) #lifeatowlatone #L&D #lovelearning #growthmindset

Every client interaction counts, and staying responsive sets the stage for building trust and long-term partnerships. Imagine the satisfaction that comes from knowing you're making a difference, even while others are on a break. That’s the edge. What are you doing today to push the needle forward? #powdercoatings #powdercoating

Everyone has their home team, and mine is the (so far) undefeated Green Bay Packers! As football season kicks off, many of us are gearing up for those exciting tailgating weekends. The camaraderie and preparation of a great tailgate can translate to our professional lives! 1. Team Spirit: Just like a successful tailgate, a thriving workplace thrives on team spirit. Whether you’re grilling burgers or tackling a big project, collaboration and enthusiasm make all the difference. 2. Adaptability: Weather changes, game delays, or unexpected guests – tailgating teaches us to adapt on the fly. In our careers, being flexible and ready to pivot is crucial for overcoming challenges. 4. Building Relationships: Tailgating is all about connecting with friends and making new ones. At work, fostering strong relationships with colleagues can enhance teamwork and create a positive environment. 5. Enjoy the Process: Lastly, tailgating reminds us to enjoy the journey, not just the destination. Celebrating small wins and having fun along the way can boost morale and productivity. #WeAreJohnsonControls

A man saw a boy on the beach throwing starfish back into the ocean. When the man asked why, the boy explained that if he didn’t, they would die. The man pointed out the futility of the effort given the vast number of starfish and the miles of beach. The boy responded by throwing another starfish into the sea, saying, "I made a difference to that one." Inspired, the man joined in, and soon others did too. By the end of the day, dozens of people were throwing starfish back into the ocean. This story shows that every small action matters. Each effort can create a positive impact, and collective actions can lead to significant change. Let's keep making a difference, one step at a time, and inspire others to do the same.

Back in 1980 my grandfather, Dan Eller and his business partner John Wagner, took a leap of faith. They traded in their artistic background for an entrepreneurial adventure, the inception of something far greater than just a cleaning company. January 2024 marks the 44th anniversary of Populist Cleaning Co. Reflecting on 44 years of progress, development, and growth, I can’t help but be filled with pride at the accomplishments of everyone on our hardworking team. “Populist” is more than a name, it’s a mission. We believe in providing opportunities for hardworking people to support themselves and their families. This idea along with our core values: commitment, hard work, individual responsibility, respect, and professionalism, have guided this company from the very beginning. My dad, Mike Eller has been Populist’s President since the 1990’s. As John Wagner, co-owner, says, “Mike has poured his heart and soul into Populist. He’s shown unwavering leadership, and under his guidance, our family business has grown into a network of 300+ employees, customers and vendors.” Today’s world throws challenges at every turn, but one thing remains constant: the soul of Populist Cleaning Co. We may be a cleaning company, but at our core, we’re a people company. That’s who we are, and that’s who we’ll always be. Here’s to impacting the lives of thousands of people each and every day, and making life better through quality partnering for many years to come! #anniversary #facilityservices #facilitiesmanagement

Being on shifts when I'm struck by a surge of creativity and experimentation can make things a bit messy to say the least (don't worry, I clean up after myself of course). In my latest blog post over at Drizzl'd, I discuss the number one benefit of working with us!

Ok, my last post on the short survey we did for department leaders at the Rose Bowl Aquatics Center. I think these lessons learned translate to all workplaces. How can you enhance the work environment to have the vision, mission, values, and employees flourish?
