The Power of 10

Half way through the year and time for our half year resolutions or the power of 10. Ten things you can do next week to make a difference.
1. Meet 10 new people in the organisation
2. Set a goal to achieve 10 things from your to do list
3. Set a target to reduce outstanding calls on the service desk by 10%
4. Grow your personal network by 10 people
5. Learn 10 things about the system you are weakest on.
6. Send out one ' how to' tip for users every week for the next 10 weeks
7. Find 10 cost savings
8. Generate 10 new ideas
9. Try and spend 10 minutes with each member of your team during the week
10. Spend 10 minutes a day sorting your desk and that mass of papers

How about bet you 10 bucks that in 10 hours time, all this would be forgotten! :)

Not trying to be rude here, but that's the reality of such '10' lists.

Thats the half empty glass theory but if one or two are acted upon or they generate some ideas or thoughts then that would be an achievment.

I'm with Peter on this one, even a small change can make a big difference.
Even if you did one per week for the next 10 weeks, think of the potential benefits!
