I've been offline much too long! Now I'm back :-)
I just have to mention this story. Recently I was asked to track the success of my efforts and use facts to drive ongoing improvements.
Folks, face it, I've been tracking my success since managing a 4th grade election campaign.
Back then, I had a goal and a purpose. My goal was to choose the right person to run for the position and win. My purpose was to influence the student body to vote for my candidate.
Great kid and a good friend.
Together we won the election.
Since then, I've reviewed, modified and improved on my ability to set S.M.A.R.T goals. I strive to be an effective team member.
What is important to me as an individual contributor is pride in a job well executed.
As a team, I collaborate with others to set and meet goals, knowing the overall purpose for the project. Each member has a role to play and it's up to us to play that role well.
My smartly executed role as an individual contributor, will always rollup into the team's purpose.
Ever since I got that kid elected in the 4th grade, I've tracked the success of my efforts and used facts to drive ongoing improvements. Way to go me, I mean us!
Best,
Parker
