Success: On our own but never alone

November 23, 2008 by David Zinger 2 Comments

Employee engagement is never self-made. Connections with others are the glue, lubricant, and fuel for full engagement. Here is a snippet from Malcolm Galdwell’s Outliers:

    David …

    Your point is key … across all boundaries. We are all so connected in so many ways that is astounding to contemplate.

    One of my work/life principles is: I work alone and at the same time connect with others to get results.

    Thanks for the reminder.

    Dean,

    I appreciate your comment. I was just reading about Wilbur Wright. He was talking about an early German flight creator. He said about Lilienthal:

    What one man can do himself directly is but little. If however he can stir up ten others to take up the task he has accomplished much.
