I had the pleasure of attending the Mitie High Potential event yesterday—not as one of the high potentials, mind you, just an observer. It was fantastic to be in the midst of Mitie's top account and delivery teams. During the session, Frost & Sullivan presented an insightful analysis of the UK facilities management market and its participants, shedding light on the current trends. It got me pondering about motivation and drive, both on a personal level and within the company. How do you stay motivated when you're at the top of your game? How do you push yourself to improve just a little bit each day? Whether you're Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, Siya Kolisi of the South Africa Rugby Team, or working in an FM company like ours, what drives performance, and what metrics do you use? Is it the Dave Brailsford approach of incremental gains? His philosophy of "the aggregation of marginal gains" focuses on making small improvements in everything you do, believing that these tiny changes can add up to remarkable results. Or do you measure large absolute changes; trophies or revenue or numbers of contracts at year end? So, what is it that drives us in FM? Is it how many contracts we've won or retained? Is it being voted the best place to work? Or is it something more personal, like the satisfaction of seeing those incremental improvements in our daily tasks? For me, it’s recognising that we are slightly better today than we were last week, last month, and last year. It’s about delivering to our people, our clients, and through these improvements, our stakeholders. However, what motivated me today was beating my personal best on the ride into work on this lovely day!! #mitie #highpotential #motivation

https://lnkd.in/g2GMHZer The message does not get old! While I am gladly basing myself out of the Nordics, (as they do ”punch above their weight in skillsets and balanced lifestyle), in America one feels that they can make an impactful difference on the world scene. There are many opportunities to straddle both regions. At S&C Business Development, we are here to assist you in navigating your own path.

Peer Training I find such a training as the best training platform. It is also the best environment to thrive without fear of failure knowing fully well that your mentor will guide you through the process while letting you chart your own path to specialized field.

In this segment of In Partnership With, Ed Bastian, CEO of Delta Air Lines, shares how he learned that becoming CEO was possible, how he manages through crises, what it takes to maintain Delta’s industry leadership, and the importance of having people who believe in you.   Ed says, “someone said to me, you should work for an airline, you travel so much. And I thought that was actually an interesting idea… certainly as a customer I did. But when you get behind the curtain, it's a lot more complicated… I like a challenge. Travel, hospitality, the airline industry – they are usually where the fires are occurring. When we are successful, it’s incredible. Having that ability to overcome obstacles is a big part of it… but it’s the people that make a difference.” Be sure to watch the final segment on Thursday to hear Ed’s insights on the modern traveler and his focus on getting more balance in his role as CEO.   #InPartnershipWith #TeamAmex
