Performance by Kevin McManus
ISE magazine's monthly column about performance (September 2020)
Know your aim in life
During a recent re-read (or re-listen)
of Dr. W. Edwards Deming’s last book,
The New Economics, I noticed he started
each chapter with a section called “The
Aim of this Chapter.” Had I not read the
book several times, this practice might
have struck me as odd. Instead, I was reminded
of the power that comes from
knowing one’s mission, writing it down
and striving to live it consistently over
time.
