POWER THOUGHT OF THE WEEK: Unlikely Connections, Part 4

Power Thought of the Week with Patricia Parham, Ph.D.

Authenticity

Connect around excellence rather than expertise. How do you build excellence into your products and services? Find those most different from yours and ask three people how they do the same? Thank them for sharing their strategies and share yours -- only if asked. See how their answers are similar and different. Later, contact each one and share what you learned from them, individually, and in general. Your thoughtfulness and sharing how you made sense of the new information shows earnestness and authenticity and is a basis for unlikely connections.
