We all know people. Some of us know lots people others know very few. Sometime s we know lots of folks we say 'hello to' but we don't know their name. Here's a crazy thought - lets ask the people we have been smiling and saying hello to for years and years 'Hey I'm Peter what's your name?' Clearly if your name is not Peter then this question would be a little bit bizzare but would definatley be an ice breaker.
Anyway the point is we have come to conclusions about these people and that in turn impacts on how we think of them. So what's the point of all this? Well if you follow the old sales adage that people buy people then the more trusted the personal recommendation you get the more comfortable you feel about recommending that person to someone else. If we also accept that there are some great people in some poor organisations and vice versa then this blog is all about the great people not the poor organisiations. I want to collect some great stories about some great people.
So the focus of this blog has to be people not companies. Now the individuals that are highlighted may well be the charismatic leaders of a great companies or equally they could well be a fantastic teacher, the lolly pop (man or lady) who always has a kindly word or the man in the kebab shop who always remembers what you order. Whoever they are and what ever they do they are folk you know and that is what this little site is all about.
