Built to Last

Each quarter our board picks one book to read which will make us a better organization.  This past quarter was the book "Built to Last,"by Jim Collins and Jerry Porras.  As an organization our goal is to build a visionary company that will continue empowering and developing kids around the world long after we are gone.  We are not just thinking about the short term, but truly trying to create something special that has a long last impact.  The book was incredibly helpful in identifying small changes we can continue to implement to become better as an organization every day.  We are far form perfect and are always seeking ways to improve.

If anyone would like to join us in our 4th quarter read, we will be spending time on the book "Becoming a Coaching Leader," by Daniel Harkavey, CEO of Building Champions.  We have picked this book because we believe developing our team is one of the most important things we can do as an organization to continue to improve and create sustainable success.

We always welcome your ideas to help us become a better organization, so please feel free to share with us at any point ways we can continue to grow and improve.

Thank you and have an incredible week!

Joey
