Morning Huddle Action Thoughts
by Steve Anderson
Steve Anderson has 5 new Action Thoughts for your Morning Huddles this week… Monday, May 26 Thought: Spread cheer not fear. Steve Anderson and Walter Hailey Action: Make it a rule that ideas intended to be constructive are never ridiculed regardless of their ultimate value or usefulness. Only when fear has been eliminated and replaced by an atmosphere of harmony and trust, can the most creative ideas flourish. One way to create a harmonious atmosphere is to treat co-workers with the same respect and attention as you would your most valued patient. Tuesday, May 27
Thought: A mastermind alliance is created when two or more individuals work in harmony for the attainment of a common purpose. Walter Hailey and Steve Anderson Action: Make maximum use of the morning huddle by making sure all attendees are participants. When minds work together they create an additional mind so that the power and ability of the group is actually greater than its total number. Wednesday, May 28
Thought: We are committed to the profession we serve and hold ourselves accountable to high ethical standards in our dealings with our patients and with each other. Cindy McKane-Wagester Action: Be sure you have a Code of Ethics and a Mission Statement posted where dental team members are reminded of both every day. This Day Starter can be a thought starter for your code of ethics. Thursday, May 29
Thought: He is happy whose circumstances suit his temper, but he is more excellent who can suit his temper to any circumstances. David Hume Action: Resolve today to adjust your temper to make those of other temperaments totally at home in your presence. Friday, May 30
Thought: Even when a bird walks we see that he has wings. Lemoine Action: Find pleasure today in looking beyond the actions of each patient to an appreciation of his/her total abilities, potential, and worth as a person.
