Tools of the Year:  The Stomp the Elephant Blog

A Thank you note from a recent Pathways to Leadership graduate shares how valuable the Stomp the Elephant blog is to her and her husband.

Dear Steve,

I want to thank you for an inspiring Mastery Session! I thoroughly enjoyed myself and can’t tell you how energized and excited I am to get back out there into the thick of things. I love our team! And I truly see the greatness in each of us and the potential we have to be a force in building and sustaining a Wellness Culture in our functional team, department and organization.

I was so enthusiastic when I finished my initial Pathways to Leadership program and couldn’t wait to go home and try it out. My husband wasn’t as enthusiastic – his company has their own version of leadership life applications and training and he didn’t want to participate in mine. But I was determined to share this as much as I possibly could.

I had subscribed to the “Stomp the Elephant” blog (www.stomptheelephant.com/blog) and so I was receiving my weekly Vannoy & Ross blog in email. A month ago I received one titled, Do You Have a Restrictor Plate On? I thought it was a really cool message and knowing that sports are a shared passion/interest between my husband and me, I forwarded this to him at work. He’s also a strong advocate for identifying strengths and developing people to be the best they can be.

He came home that night and I asked him if he read the restrictor plate email. He told me that he not only read it and liked it, but in a challenging meeting, he actually used the restrictor plate analogy that very day! It was perfect timing and a perfect message. He is now reading your book, Stomp the Elephant in the Office.

PS:...more to the story. As I sit here writing, my husband made a comment tonight on the blog, Play the Ball or the Man, while we watched the Olympics - He SIGNED UP for the blog! AMAZING!
