    From Good to Great: The Last 20 Percent

    I’ve always been an 80/20 guy: figure out the 20% of your work that contributes 80% toward your goals and focus your effort there. A variant of the 80/20 rule is the law of diminishing returns. The idea is that 80% is good enough and the last 20% is going to be far more effort than it’s worth. Get to 80% and move on to the next thing because “done” is better than “perfect”…Sometimes.

    Onboarding Success: Start before your employee does: maximizing success for new employees.

    At one time or another we were all the new kid at the office. You likely don’t know anyone or your way around the cubicles. Where’s the bathroom again? You introduce yourself to everyone hoping to make a new connection—and fast. You put on a smile, put your head down and work hard to prove that you are in fact worthy and capable of the job you just landed. And if it doesn’t get off to a great start, you likely won’t stay.

    Celebration: The REAL impact of celebrating an employee’s career.

    I hear time and time again that service awards are dead. No one cares about their service anniversaries anymore and millennials in particular feel service award programs are cheesy. But recent research proves this isn’t true.

    Storytelling: Why storytelling is the hidden amplifier for recognition.

    Once upon a time I worked for a company that used epic storytelling in their cultural narrative. The annual company-wide party was a chance to recount the early, sputtering days of the company: the group ran out of money, and when the CEO met with the team to lay them off, all the employees volunteered to work for free, or at greatly reduced salaries. The company bootstrapped and clawed their way to a successful technology organization that sold for a handsome profit, rewarding all those volunteers and the employees who had followed.
