message from the director
Learning to explore options can be rewarding. For example, I've always wanted to see giant Sequoia and Redwood trees and stand in the shadow of their impressive height. I mostly put this at the bottom of my bucket list, believing I would have to travel to California. Imagine my surprise when I found out through an accidental Google search that there is a giant Sequoia just a few hours away on the west coast of Michigan! How did I not know this? It was easier for me to believe that my goal was too impossible than to take the time to explore alternatives. The same holds true for the workplace. Don't naturally assume something can't be done, explore alternatives. This is where thinking outside the box helps improve and streamline a process. Explore as a team, ask questions and get everyone's opinion. I think we are lucky to have so many generations working together with different perspectives and experiences. It truly enriches our workplace culture and enlivens our explorations.
With gratitude,
Kathy
