I sat down with my friend and colleague, George Kingman, founder of Advanced Shop Leadership (ASL) and Blue Sky Tire and Auto Service.
I count George among the most positive influences on my career, a steady source of encouragement throughout my time in this industry.
That's the topic of our conversation today, because when you ask George how he's doing, you can expect an immediate, sincere answer: "I'm super fantastic. How about you?"
If you think that's just a canned line, wait until you hear George talk about how he first encountered the idea in a five minute speech by Keith Harrell, and how it's fundamentally changed the way he moves through the world and interacts with others, putting them before himself.
Once you hear George's take on it, you'll walk away with a new appreciation for how he learned to apply that five minute speech to the first five seconds of any conversation, and how those five seconds can change the trajectory of an interaction, and even a life.
Our word of the day is:
Vivify
Verb.
To make lively, to bring to life.
George leaves everyone with an easy assignment: try what he's teaching for one week. He thinks it has the power to change everything.
George’s Book Recommendation: John Maxwell - Attitude 101
Enjoy!
Sincerely,
Craig O’Neill
