Hope to see you there!

Having managed thousands of people for the past 30 years, may I share with you a few thoughts? These are the most valuable things that I have gathered:

1. Never complain about anyone. The worst thing in the business world is people talking about others... it is the collapse of business!
2. Never complain about your work. You were hired to solve problems. If there were no problems to solve, then they wouldn't need you!
3. Always be happy. Only an odd one or two people in companies are happy. Happy people make work go better
4. Don't solve other people's problems. You were hired to do your job. Everyone has problems. Let them sort them out for themselves. Do your job.
5. Do what you said you would do by the time you agreed to do it. This is invaluable. Most people do NOT do what was asked of them. They go off and do what they think is important. This is extremely frustrating for the manager of that person. We want done what we asked to be done by the time that we agreed it would be done.
6. If you can't reach the deadline, say so as early as possible.
7. Work is for doing business. Religion and personal interests are what you pursue outside your job. By being an excellent employee you will shine. People will be attracted to that.
8. What Sally says about Harry says more about Sally than it does about Harry
9. Never work for free. That's called volunteerism
10. Love what you do. It makes everything possible
