When Tara Met Blog
Tuesday, June 26, 2007
Things learned while in a 6 hour biz meeting
  • There are more French restaurants in New York City than in Paris.

  • "The greatest leader is a servant. Don't be a boss, be a real leader, a servant leader. A servant leader is a winner. Even when he loses everything, even his life, a servant leader wins it all," Pat Williams, SVP of Orlando Magic.

The first stat came from inside my Snapple ice tea cap (more), while the quote was The Way I See It #196 on the outside of my green tea Starbucks container.  Okay, I learned some real things from my actual meeting too, like between the ages of 18-38 the average number of jobs a person will have is 10.2. I'm already at four. How about you? 

Oh and words of wisdom from a NY colleague said that "we work to live, not live to work."

Nothing beats great trivia to annoy my colleagues with. Thanks for the UBI's! Love them.

Name: "April"

A CEO of mine that lived in CA used that expression "we work to live, not live to work."   He said that the East coast mentality was the opposite.  It must be nice being 3 hours behind - when you wake up the East coast is half over their day and solved most of the business problems.
