Lead by Example

At work, we have been training all week on a new library system. With about 10 people in training at a time, some people from out of state and an hour lunch, I figured it would be a good opportunity to FEED THE PEOPLE.

They really deserve it, plus--who wants to be fretting about lunch when you have a new system to learn?

So, anywho, I had split lunch duties with a coworker/friend. I made picnic sandwiches on Monday. She made taco lunch on Tuesday. I am making Italian beef and turkey poor boys for lunch today & we'll order pizza tomorrow.

But that's not the point.

The point is, that this morning, people started bringing in little extras--candy to share, bananas, a poppyseed roll & a famous Heath Bar cake (which I will certainly learn more about later today). How cool is it to help create an environment of sharing by leading by example?

I'm amazed and humbled by such an outstanding group of people. I hope this week's training benefits from this teamwork/togetherness. Very cool.
