Add Children to Change Your Meetings #edc #innovation

You're wondering what is the purpose of this photo with children having fun. Well, because they are doing more than having fun. They are inventing. Have you ever noticed how children will invent, reinvent and repeat a thing? They fall and fall and fall. Then they just keep trying with a smile. It is amazing to me that babies ever learn to walk. If an adult learned to walk at any age we'd crawl everywhere. All babies know is failure. Fall. Fall. Fall. But because they reach for what is out of their reach they succeed.

Ever been to a city council or community meeting only to ask yourself, "Why the heck are we having this meeting?" The answer is simple. Not at all complex. The people with the "Zoom Zoom Zip Aw Shucks ides" are locked out. In your Monday morning meetings look for someone who gets on your nerves. They'll push you to places you never dared go. Making you a Cinderella come back story. If you need me I’m here. Jim
