Received my first ever “ducking via mail.” These two guys showed up in a mail pouch with the return address of #duckduckjeep in Michigan.
I had to take a pic with them on my snowy NH Jeep immediately.
Thank you secret MI Jeeper!
Two roads diverged in the woods and I - I took the road less travelled by.

It WAS the best day ever!
After one year of @Jeep Wrangler 4xe ownership, we were finally ducked at breakfast. Best day ever for @RussWakelin and his little Jeep! #duckduckjeep #duckingjeeps

Let’s face it, talking about pay is still taboo. But, we know that data-informed discussions about pay benefit employees as well as employers.

I love this analogy. Applies to #productmanagement roadmaps too once you get beyond a certain time horizon.
Very much looking forward to hosting this with our Pay Equity expert Ruth Thomas.

As a #productmanager I feel the need to challenge the assumption on why the original campaign failed. It COULD be that fractions are counter intuitive but:
- Was it more expensive?
- Was the quality better?
- Does a larger portion = more sales?

In the 80’s, A&W launched a 1/3 lb burger to compete with the McDonalds quarter-pounder. But it flopped because people are bad at fractions and thought 1/4 was bigger than 1/3. (Cause 4 > 3, of course)
They’ve now resurrected it as the ‘3/9 burger’.

I gotta admit, it was great to get back to in person speaking. I was nervous I’d be a little rusty but the feedback seemed positive. Thanks to @TX_TotalRewards for the opportunity to keynote and visit beautiful Houston, Texas!

I’ve lived in NH for over 30 years and just learned this fun fact from your post!

When was the last time you asked one of your direct reports "What can I do to better enable you?"
Don't let their next boss be their first boss to ask them that.
#leadership #leadershipdevelopment #success
I'm privileged to have worked with so many of the amazing people who made this happen.
Nice recognition for years of hard work to an unproven vision that many said was impossible.
This is only the beginning.
