14 Apr The Mission Minute Issue #1
During this time of staying at home, Zoom calls, and reading overwhelming amounts of information — Mission Triangle is excited to pass along a our weekly “Mission Minute” full of simple nuggets of encouragement, key learnings, and announcements. We find them helpful and hope you do as well! |
A quote from C.S. Lewis during WWII (1942) that applies to us today.
Sound Business Principle
- Clarity. Consistency. Coordination. It is in times of confusion that we must be reminded of these “three C’s” that we focused on in our February 2020 Marketing & Communication workshop. A leader’s job is to steer towards these ideals even if we are only able to see clearly one day at a time.
- The way we do things when we do things urgently makes a difference for the people we’re leading. – Andy Crouch
