Good Morning, Friends! Here are 5 things I’m up to this week…
What I’m working on —Cincinnati opened yesterday! This project has been in the making for years and it’s finally open for business. This week is our dry run, (hence the unceremonial opening). All the fan fare and celebrations begin next week! Like every location we open, I’m really proud of this one. It seems like every time we build a new LNS, they get a little closer to the perfect image I have in my head of what I want a location to look like, feel like and operate like. Each one is unique, but similar. This location is the ROCK AND ROLL PIZZA CHURCH…and it ROCKS! I can’t wait for you all to see it.
Something I’m behind on —Tuesday’s Manager Meeting Presentation. If you haven’t noticed, each Tuesday I have a little something prepared…a discussion topic, an interesting fact or figure or something to think about during your week. These generally come from my readings during the week. Don’t worry, I’ll figure something out. 🙂
What I’m reading —Just about to finish up Good to Great this week. This book has been transforming. I’m sure that’s why it’s on every “must read” list. What I like the most about it is, it’s not just someone’s rambling opinion about “what you should do and how to do it”, it’s all research and data based. You can disagree or argue with the authors points all you want, the data is there to back up the findings. In fact, Good to Great is only about 200 pages, the entire book is about 400 pages because of all the appendixes!
What I’m listening to —Jungle. UK funk band. If you can’t get down to Jungle, you got broken legs!
Something I’m into lately— Getting back to a routine. I know that’s kind of a bullshit answer, but with all the back and fourth to Cincinnati plus a little trip to the Dominican Republic last week, it feels like I’m almost never in my own bed. This week settles down a little bit and I can get back to my version of regular…whatever that is. 🙂
Have a wonderful week, all!
