Is your business filled with Rules or Recipes?
• Rules rob your people from the ability to think and act independently. • When things are rule bound, people stop pleasantly surprising you, and more,
they stop trusting themselves. • Don’t set rules set guidelines and standards. • Focus on Outcomes
PEOPLE• It’s Not About The Wine
