“A Bad Day at Work Is Inevitable and Other Myths” 

Why should we ever have a bad day at work?  Why don’t we end each day giving each other “high fives?”  I believe we can have a really great day almost every day. This talk explores what we have to do to insure that we never have a bad day at work.  The four areas that are addressed are:[1]

J  Have a winning strategy

J  Have a cheerful outlook

J  Manage using positive reinforcement

J  Vigorously pursue lean operations
