A Thanksgiving Note

Just a quick note for Thanksgiving (here in the US). I am settled in at home, turkey in the fridge, favorite recipe ingredients stacked on the counter. A time for gratitude.

I want to give special thanks to all the readers of Management Blog. We have just completed 17 full years of publishing. I think I will have a beer. Happy Thanksgiving.

See you all next Monday, Nov 29. -Tom

A Short List of Gratitude

This week, the US celebrates the holiday of Thanksgiving. The holiday commemorates a meal of the harvest. Its origin may have been a meal in 1565 in St. Augustine Florida, or another in 1621, Plymouth Plantation. It is a time when families and friends come together to celebrate and give thanks for the world we live in.

I want to thank my readers. This blog started twelve years ago, 2,256 posts. Just a reminder of the awesome responsibility we have, as CEOs, as managers, to move people, to challenge people, to provide a place of work for each team member to realize their fullest potential. This responsibility is a gift. I am grateful.

Management Blog will return next Monday, November 28, 2016. Have a great Thanksgiving. -Tom Foster
