TAKE HOME MESSAGE
Its not about being the best but being better
than yesterday
Albert Einstein is credited for saying “The
definition of Insanity is doing the same thing
over and over again and expect a different
result” – make that change that matters
Be as wild as you like looking for innovation –
just be disciplined during the implementation
The WLSG is there to help and we are one big
family – don’t be afraid to ask
