Couple posing by mountain lake
We spent hours here. And because of that, the shadow the clouds had cast on the entire lake and mountain side vanished to reveal an unexpected blue sky and stunning sunlight.

You change your world one day at a time. There is no other way.

Out of office alert at home

hotel website page
Got shut out at last year’s lottery. Yet somehow managed two multi-day reservations. A three-day in July i enjoyed before family arrived for annual trip. A four-night, season-closing res that we had to cancel due to eye surgery.

A healthy sense of urgency is the harvest for being fully present in the moment(s).

Out of office alert at home…

Cultural attention to details.

Who owns it, maintains it, improves it?

Like, who’s personally graded for consistently excellent results?

It’s important to remember and easy to forget that the road to excellence has no finish line.

This exercise was for a tiny Galen detail that hundreds of people do hundreds of different ways.

And from the exercise, now hundred’s are doing it one way — The Galen Way.

Can you start to imaging the magnification and opportunity to creatively have fun addressing anything and everything that you do day in and day out — for your entire career.

The goal is always to have more employees, doing better things, more often.

Launch, learn, revise. Repeat.

It’s only impossible until you do it the first time.

Everything that is currently done the way it is done was once ‘never done that way’.

Organizational Creativity is the DNA of world-class organizations.

Nursing Education never turns down anyone with world class dreams.

Final note: OOO voice messages and OOO text messages need standards and expectations too.

Please don’t over-think this

Please don’t over-think this.

The 19 organizational blueprints are meant to be the starting point. Simple. Fundamental. Foundational.

Drawings – the ideas, concepts, tenants of your organization – are the easy part.

Constructing a cathedral will require many people and take a long time (years).

But once built, will be beautiful and functional and the benchmark by which others aspire to build.

Never get bored with the basics. Ever

organizing stuff
there's no one right way to organize stuff...find your own way through experimentation

What we are good at becomes so second nature to us that we no longer comprehend it as a talent. A friend recently asked me to think about a person who’s lost their glasses – after a week, they forget how clear the world looks.

One of the most basic things we can do is bust our butts to find a system that is decently effective at handling the paperwork of life. Never get bored with this. Ever.
