From the Alamo to Houston

Thank you so much!

When we announced our “Alamo” initiative, last week  – promising relief to today’s hard pressed managers – we didn’t expect a great response. After all, we know most managers are just too busy with their own problems to take time to make suggestions and propose ideas on ways that we can help .

Well, you really surprised us!  Not only did we receive ideas from so many of you but the quality of your suggestions really surpassed all our expectations.

 

Here are just three…

Space_Shuttle_liftoff Ken, from Seattle, said we should sharpen up our Team Effective registration process. Not only did he give details of what we needed to do but also recommended the software we should use to do it.

Ken’s an engineering manager who used to work for NASA so we weren’t surprised when we were able to implement his ideas so quickly.

We’re really pleased with the result. Check it out and let us know what you think. 

Maybe not as awesome as one of Ken’s earlier projects – see the picture – but we think it’s great. Thanks Ken.

 

Joanne is an H.R. manager for a health food company in Manchester, England. She’s put forward a fantastic “just eat what you need”  idea,  incorporating  “supported”, downloadable content.

Elizabeth’s particularly excited about this one and judging by the hours she spent at her keyboard over the weekend, we’ll soon have more news on this.

One of the first managers to join Team Effective  – Kim from Singapore, has outlined a really provocative  idea on structuring the access permissions  to our site. We need to work some more on this but it’s already looking very promising.  Huge thanks, Kim.

 

So we’ve lots to do. Your ideas have really motivated us and confirmed our commitment to the “Alamo Initiative”.

It’s not too late to send us your own thoughts on how we can help managers through the current recession. Every idea helps.

Your thoughts?

Thanks
