I've found that too often companies attend some type of personality typology workshop and then walk around for a couple of weeks pointing out who is what color or some other identifier. The problem is that this simply lead to people pointing out their differences. Team results tend to come from team members who work well together and can work based on not only the things that are different about them but their similarities. It's often the things we have in common that bring us together and help us share with each other in the workplace. I’m glad you brought this topic up Jason.

Y'all rocked up in Detroit. Very on the ball with some heady stuff during a tough day. (I'm talking about the Lion's firing their coach, of course). Anytime, Matt. Y’all rocked up in Detroit.

"My goal isn’t to build the prettiest consulting firm; it’s to build one that provides real solutions to real problems." That statement alone could be the start of some amazingly honest business goals.
