Tammy Erickson Talent - Innovation - The Intelligent Organization

Tammy Erickson

Blending Vision and Relationships for Success

Q:

I just saw your CLR powerpoint presentation for Boeing and really tracked with it. Well done!

It reminds me of my mssion statement - that goes over most people’s head—My mission is to ignite the synergy between vision and relationships to fuel success.

Sharon Rolph

A:

Thanks, Sharon.  What a great role you have!  It’s unusual to find someone who explicitly defines their mission the way you do.  But you’ve got your eye on the critical elements of success in today’s economy.  I think of a leader’s job today as being that of encouraging just a few more people every day to invest just a little more discretionary energy toward the organization’s goals.  Doing that requires both a compelling question (or vision, or quest) and trust based relationships among individuals. 

Warm wishes,

Tammy
