Eat Your Own Cooking.

Tonight, my good friend Mitch Modell will be on Undercover Boss, the CBS show where a chief executive dons a disguise to work as an entry-level employee in his own company.

It’s a great concept for a TV show, and knowing Mitch, he’s going to come up aces tonight. But the truth is, no manager or executive should need to be on a show to eat his or her own cooking, so to speak.

Managers and executives should eat their own cooking all the time, in order to be effective. We have to tape ourselves in meetings, so we can listen to our own pep talks. We have to be customers in our own stores, and online, so we can get the retail experience from the consumers’ side of things.

Really, no matter what level employee you are, you have to take that look in the mirror now and again. You have to read the emails you send out, as if you were the recipient. You have to spend some time at the end of each day considering how your interactions with others might have seemed from their perspective.

In short, we all have to see consistently what our decisions look like from the other side.

How else can we gauge whether or not they’re effective?

  • I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
