On the last day of National Poetry Month, our Leadership Quote of the Week is a poem of sorts.

Generalizations often guide decisions and actions – and may cause us to overlook people and projects that are rich with possibility.

They may also cause team members to head in opposite directions.  Or to simply be at odds.  Which is usually bad news for morale and productivity.

Read this little “poem” at your next staff meeting and post it on the wall as a reminder:

• that things aren’t always one way or the other –  or “black and white”
• that the “in between”  or “gray” areas  are rich with possibility
• that our views aren’t necessarily “right”
• to consider other views
• to discuss them with others

 Use this quote as background or wallpaper for your computer with just three clicks.

1. Click on the image above. Don’t see an image above? Use this link.

2. Right click on the image that appears.

3. On the pull down menu that appears, click on “set as background”. Voila!

There’s still plenty of room on the left side of the screen for all your shortcut icons.

Note: If you don’t like your new wallpaper, don’t want to replace it with a quote from the Business Class Quote Library and don’t know how to get rid of it…… Go to your control panel. Select “Display”. Select “Desktop”. And then choose from the designs offered.”
