What I have learned about people and organizations...so far.

Making Corn Plops and Pow Juice taught me several critical lessons about leadership, work and life.

Isn’t it amazing that a childhood game could teach so much?  I’m not sure if Dad had a full sense of his impact but we learned many powerful lessons:
  • Attitude can Save your Life.
  • Work can be Fun.
  • Everyone should Know their Assignment.
  • Teamwork gets Things done Fast and Efficiently.
  • Correct, Don’t Condemn and be Sure to Complement.
  • Great Leaders Stand with you Shoulder to Shoulder. 

Reflecting on Corn Plops and Pow Juice I realize that while Wheaties may be “The Breakfast of Champions” Corn Plops and Pow Juice is the true “breakfast of a championship organization and life.”
