⚠Attention! NOW is the time to prepare for dangerous downslope winds if you live in prone areas...including portions of the N. Wasatch Front, Cache Valley, and areas E of Price.

Better boundaries can help you find yourself

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Setting boundaries is not a display of disrespect. It’s an act of self-respect.

In toxic relationships, people can’t take no for an answer. They feel entitled to ignore your limits.

In healthy relationships, people don’t just accept your boundaries. They help you maintain them.

Amazed to hear and feel it here in Sandy today.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Public service announcement for managers and coaches: you can't judge effort by results.

Inconsistent performance doesn't mean people aren't trying their best. It often means they're doing their best in the face of turbulence.

In humans, variability is a feature, not a bug.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

When you burn people out, you push them out. Stars are the first to leave—they have the most opportunities.

The solution is not to pile on the perks. It’s to pinpoint the root causes of overload and design more manageable jobs.

If you want to keep people, stop exhausting them.

[Skyler Stratford @skythefireguy]

A great perspective and a wise reminder to look at the bigger picture to see all the impacts.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

The most important question about a new project isn't how much you'll enjoy it.

It's whether it will interfere with existing priorities that matter to you.

An opportunity that seems compelling in isolation is a mistake if it leaves you overextended.

A great reminder of the importance of regular review of value and making changes based on and driven by value. #datadrivendecisions

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

To all the companies calling people back to the office full-time: Don't mistake presence for performance.

Showing up is not a sign of commitment or contribution. It's an act of compliance.

What matters is the value people create, not the place they inhabit.

[Skyler Stratford @skythefireguy]

Often people just want to know that something is happening and they respect that they don’t need all of the details at the moment.

[The County Library @_CountyLibrary]

There are no commercials in books and you don't have subscribe to them.

The evidence clearly shows that books > TV.

We rest our case.

Leadership that fosters growth of team members. Direction without suffocation.

Picard management tip: Tell the crew where to go. Let them figure out how to get there.

Happy #Stitch Day!! #626 Hope you celebrated everyone’s favorite experimental friend.

The goal is to feel a part of something, not just play a part in anything.

[Skyler Stratford @skythefireguy]

Well just sat down to play some @LSWGame After an update my characters are invisible in the intro and gameplay. Is this happening to anyone else? #StarWarsTheSkywalkerSaga #NintendoSwitch

[Skyler Stratford @skythefireguy]

@Sandy_Police Good to see, like everyone, our brothers in blue enjoy eating at the firehouse. Everyone knows firefighters always have good eats. @FirehouseSubs @SandyCityFD

@FEMA_EMI Looking forward to hearing the feedback and seeing it roll out officially. It was a great experience to be part of the development SME pool for these courses.
