For those of you who like to read or like to know how the management teams think managers and divison managers in the east central region have been asked to read and learn from a book called Fish this year.
For those of you who have not read the book its basically about making work fun. The fictionalized story evolves around a management person who moves to seattle and learns to make work fun by studying and implementing concepts from the world famous seattle fish market.
Some of the basic principles taught are to bring a positive attitude to work , involve the customer, to allow some ways to play, to stay focused.
One of my favorite quotes out of the book states:
There is always a choice about
the way you do your work
even if there is not a choice
about the work itself.
In the seattle fish market the vendors found a way to take a dirty cold job of selling fish and make it fun.
There are lessons to be learned here.
I would be curious as to your thoughts on the subject , thoughts on the book if you have read it and your thoughts on how to make the job you now have fun.
