3 Big Ideas, Tips or Strategies for this week
1. Brand Identity
Focus on creating a strong brand identity. This means developing a clear and consistent message about what your business stands for and what makes it unique. Your brand identity should be reflected in everything from your logo and website design to the tone of your social media posts and marketing materials.
2. Servant Leadership
One leadership idea that can be effective in many different situations is servant leadership. This approach to leadership involves putting the needs of your team or organization first and focusing on serving and supporting them, rather than solely focusing on your own goals or power.
Here are some key characteristics of servant leadership:
- Empathy: A servant leader is able to understand and share the feelings of their team members.
- Humility: A servant leader is humble and recognizes that they are only one part of the team.
- Vision: A servant leader has a clear vision for the future and is able to communicate it effectively to their team.
- Collaboration: A servant leader values collaboration and works with their team to find solutions to problems.
- Responsibility: A servant leader takes responsibility for their actions and the success of the team.
By adopting a servant leadership style, leaders can create a positive and supportive work environment that fosters growth and collaboration among team members.
3. Fordism
In the early 1900s, Henry Ford revolutionized the automobile industry with his implementation of the assembly line. Ford believed that by breaking down the manufacturing process into smaller tasks and training workers to specialize in one task, he could increase efficiency and productivity. This approach, known as Fordism, became a model for mass production and helped to make Ford’s company, the Ford Motor Company, one of the most successful and influential businesses in the world.

2 Stories, Quotes, or Case-Studies for this week
1. Anything is possible
There was once a small bakery that was struggling to stay afloat. The owner had put all of his time and energy into making the best pastries and breads, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t seem to attract enough customers.
One day, a local restaurant owner stopped by the bakery and tasted one of the owner’s famous cinnamon rolls. He was so impressed by the quality and flavor of the roll that he decided to feature it on the menu at his restaurant.
Word of the delicious cinnamon roll quickly spread, and soon the bakery was flooded with orders. The owner was able to hire additional staff, expand his product line, and eventually open a second location.
The moral of the story is that sometimes, all it takes is one small opportunity to turn a struggling business around. With hard work and a little bit of luck, anything is possible.
2. Coca-cola Origin Story
In 1886, Coca-Cola was first bottled and sold by John Pemberton, a pharmacist in Atlanta, Georgia. The original formula contained cocaine and was marketed as a “brain tonic” and a cure for headaches. In 1903, the cocaine was removed from the formula, and Coca-Cola became the world’s most popular soft drink. Today, Coca-Cola is a multinational corporation with billions of dollars in annual revenue.
