Coaching for personal growth, change and development
Stinne has joined us as of this month – She is Mike’s PA – that means she has the ardous task of keeping track of Mike as well as all the stuff that goes with ‘the show’. Stinne is also your first stop if you need to check out dates for future interventions or need to make appointments with Mike one way or the other.
What a day – 45 managers from TIVOLI got their heads down and went to work in action learning teams on this years sales and service training.
This year we tried a different approach – no top down lecture from senior management but action learning teams that set their own targets and decided on their own methods:” what would work best with my team.” Each department ended up with a step by step action plan for getting their team ready for the coming season – and the final plan was duly signed of by top managment when the day was over. Good fun – good learning.
I was impressed!

If my recent post on the new 4P’s of business caught your attention the othere day – here is another example of how this kind od thinking i spreading – Chris Nel from Tom Peters UK wrote:
” Far more powerful and enduring is to align people with a purpose beyond profit. A hope that their endeavours at work are meaningful in the big scheme of things. It’s not as if we are short of opportunities to make positive changes to our world, is it!”

Our article in this months copy of Danish hospitality magazine Visitor hit the streets yesterday and created an unexpected flurry of interest from local Danish media – I was interviewed by Ritzau the news agency and later in the day for Danish Brodcasting who did a 4 min piece on Pizza Kone on the 18 o’clock news.
Business.Dk wrote the story on their business blog: Pizza Nu som Vaffel

You may remember the 4P of Marketing ( Product, Price, etc) Increasingly there semes to be a shift towards a new set of 4P’s : Purpose, People, Planet and Profit – and in that order.
This is the message that comes through loud and clear in Mavericks at Work – it is the driving force behind a new town guide out in San Fransisco the Green Zebra. Closer to home – for me – it is also the driving force behind by most favourite restaurant La Chassagnette.
The restaurants purpose is to promote the Carmargue region in the south of France – as such the restaurnt is part of a larger project know as Heureuse Camargue – in their own words:
“In this natural and preserved landscape the women and men of “Heureuse Camargue” have consciously chosen to take up a challenge, an undertaking to the practice of organic agriculture, incontestably sustainable and respectful of a major ecological balance. We are committing an act of faith.”
If you are in the South of France this summer I recomend that you pay them a visit.
