KARLI MADE HER MOM’S DREAM COME TRUE WHAT’S NEW WITH ME AND MY OWN
By the time you read this, Karli will have been back for five months after her family vacation in Europe earlier this year. Some of you know she took her mom to Europe as one of her bucket list experiences after her mom was diagnosed with a rare and life- threatening illness, and we all bought cookies Karli’s family made from scratch to help support her. We’re all so proud of Karli for having the courage, tenacity, and initiative to make one of her mom’s dreams come true for her. She created Cookies for Karli’s Mom and earned enough to make this trip a reality. Thank you, everyone, for all of your support and for buying all of those delicious cookies. Please remember, every single one of your employees and independent contractors has something going on and has some kind of challenge they’re facing in their personal life right now.
They have someone in their life whom they care about, or they themselves are going through something.
You can either say, “Not my problem,” “separate church and state,” “their personal life is their personal life,” or you can be smart about it and realize that no one really leaves their personal problems at home. Everyone brings their personal problems to work. If you’re not taking an active interest in what’s going on in the lives of the human beings helping you make your own dreams come true, you will be at a severe disadvantage as you try to build a culture of people who give a shit about your business. Please take the initiative. If these words resonate with you at all, please take time this week to ask one or two of your employees, “How is it going?”
How do I know this? Because they’re human beings. They’ve got a mother, a father, a sister, a brother, an aunt, an uncle, a friend ...
And really listen and pay attention to their answers.
