DIVERSITY even in the Weather

Sitting here watching snow fall in KC when last evening I was sitting in shorts on deck in 70degree temps.

Now that's diversity for sure.

That same Diversity dynamic is just what makes the world go round and so interesting. The differences around the world, in our different worlds, our workplace, the people around us, between you and everyone else you know?

A strength for sure if & when we can figure out how to make all the differences blend & work together for something special... something even better!

I can tell you in my teaching and consulting, diversity sure plays out in every team, every leader and every class I teach. Wow, you should have seen the diversity of thinking, ideas, opinions and logic ...trying to happen with a group I was challenging the other day! The struggles they were demonstrating made it evident just why & how companies are challenged with that TEAM thing. Not to mention how diversity affects every personal relationship in our lives - so I won't mention it or go there just now :)

So anyway, try to appreciate the diversity around you today, the uniqueness of others, how strange and different YOU are & how you fit in?!?
... and how it all together can be a good thing, at least at times when the blending is happening well!

Let it snow Let it snow Let it snow! Not really, I am already ready for diversity again Mother Nature, ...how about those 70degrees again?

God is amazing huh? Booker
