A couple recent conversations got me thinking about the idea that “Work is 80% Relationships” and the vital importance of soft skills. * A long time ago, the best manager we ever had at RPL talked to me about how the fact that her and another manager were really good friends outside of work and […]
Actions speak louder than words… @wankernomics Ever wondered how companies come up with meaningless ‘Organisational Values’ like Integrity, Respect, Innovation and Excellence? Watch this video to find out how. If you like this type of stuff come to the all new Wankernomics show touring Australia and the UK this year. It’s an all-staff meeting brought […]

I didn’t wear a Halloween costume to work this year (the branches I’m at don’t seem to embrace the holiday like some of the others in our system – I think every single person at Central had a costume for instance and even a theme of “Care Bears”!) With that said, but one of the […]
