"Mentorship benefits both parties and the wider workplace. On average, mentees accomplished 75% of their ingoing goals, while some 45% of highly successful mentors learned new skills or tactical approaches suggested by their mentee."

Reflect on this week ... what would that wood be ?

[Mark R Thompson @markrthompson]

The world needs more reminders of this.

"To shape an enduring purpose that sets a company apart both competitively & as an employer, leadership teams must pave the way; and hopefully, when people talk about your organization years from now, will your purpose be central to the stories they tell?" #purpose #culture

[Mark R Thompson @markrthompson]

Are you willing? Most people are not!

Willingness will take you farther than you realize.

Imagine what it would do for your team, your organization, and your culture?

#willingness #culture #leadership #belief #purpose

[Mark R Thompson @markrthompson]

"Having a purpose isn’t the same as having a purpose statement. You live a purpose; you recite a purpose statement. Purpose has to be authentic to who you are as an organization, your industry, and how you serve all of your stakeholders." #purpose #culture

[Mark R Thompson @markrthompson]

"Being truly purpose driven is a long game, & saying no to even great ideas is key to allowing purpose to endure. Being transparent & clear about how & why those trade-offs are made is key to maintaining credibility with employees." #purpose #culture

[Mark R Thompson @markrthompson]

"Leadership teams must craft a purpose unique to your organization & aligned with its strategy that compels people to act and perform positively." “#WD40 ... "To create positive, lasting memories solving problems in factories, homes, & workshops worldwide.” #purpose #culture

How many opportunities would be better this week if you instituted a NO cellphone rule?

[Mark R Thompson @markrthompson]

"Coming out of the pandemic, we typically see turnover intentions of around 40% among those least connected to purpose, and rarely more than 2% among those connected to organizational purpose." #purpose #culture

It's Monday ... remember this as the chaos of the week ramps up.

Growth is growth...period. Remind yourself, remind your team...frequently. No textbook will tell you this, but this is reality.
