People Are Not Like Pasta

People Are Not Like Pasta

By Lee Houghton

Once again, inspiration has struck, this time while cooking the kids tea. Lee, in tasting a single piece of pasta, assumed all the other pasta were cooked. Let's face it, he was probably right. But not when it comes to people….people are most definitely not like pasta.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

 There are some people and places that try to treat everybody the same. When we try to effect change we give the business reason for that change but that does not enthuse everyone. We need to create personal motivation. People's way of thinking is created by the experiences that they have had, creating different approaches and motivations. We should be increasing the connection between us and other people so we can understand their thoughts and motives. 

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘They try to put everybody into a single bucket and expect everybody to have the same outcome, the same thoughts, the same feelings.’

‘If like me you believe that everything stems from thought or belief, that everybody thinks differently then what we’ve really got to do is we’ve got to challenge the thinking of people.’

‘Pasta doesn’t think but people do.’ 

‘We need to feel belonging. The more we understand people the more we belong and together achieve amazing things.’
