For those of you who missed from before, this comes from an office I used to work at in San Diego. It started before I arrived. It was a tradition and had been for months if not years before me. Every week, at the company weekly meeting, the end of the meeting was all about “the bucket”. What would happen is we would start with important announcements and reminders, go into a featured speaker for the week (usually an escrow company, title company, inspection company…whoever could bring free food – LOL). And at the end of the meeting was bucket time. During bucket time, you would state, “I want to fill someone’s bucket…” and then you would thank or acknowledge or compliment someone else in the office.
Knowing that we are all deletion creatures, this makes perfect sense. Make the last thing from the meeting, the thought that will stay with them the most from the meeting, make that a positive thought. You just never know how that positive thought may just make someone’s week go entirely different.
Eileen Burns – Eileen and I had a brief conversation weeks ago about one of the seminars I used to help teach. She had attended one just after I left the company. We spoke about the principles and how helpful they are. That conversation floated through my mind and because of it, tomorrow I start 7 days of blogs sharing some of those empowering principles. Thank you Eileen for planting that seed.
John DL Arendsen – John was our guest on the weekly Tuesday call last week. I will post on that later. What I found of particular note was how John had a number of technical challenges during his call. We couldn’t hear him or he couldn’t hear us or screens weren’t getting shared. Many people would have just given up. Instead, John did the best he could and we all got a lot out of it (Plus we learned to double check our equipment and software before we present). Thank you John for hanging in there!
Each week, I will fill more buckets. I hope you will too!
