[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 788585, member: 927"] Sorry.... I explain to my [B]people[/B] the importance of the tradition... I expect them to understand it and carry it on. I am now the old guy in every meeting with the most years of service. I feel I have a responsibility to continue this tradition and teach those around me to continue it. My belief is that there is local and personal responsibility. Long, long ago, a corporate department head with a big corner office taught me that. I told him something about how UPS thought. He told me that there is no "UPS", just people who make up the company and that I had responsibility in shaping UPS. Like I said, long ago. Casey had been dead only a couple of years.... So, at MIP time I personally give out the award. Speak about the year that went by. Speak about their role in shaping this company. If its low, I explain why. If its high (like this year), we talk about the hard work that made it so. As Hoax said, I speak about the difference between acting like an employee vs. acting like an owner. As far as the district manager goes, I got it from my district manager mostly in my career. Yes, its almost impossible today, but that does not mean the concept cannot continue. Its up to individual management to carry it on.... [/QUOTE]
