  1. WORKING HARD will help you reach your Goals or just use a ladder ! Michael T. Walsh, CPIM, QI, LSSMBB, Lean Sensei QSG – Lean Sigma Associates, LLC ISM NY/NJ Forum Mt. Pocono, PA November 1, 2013

  2. Abstract / Objective With the help of Yogi Berra, we will discuss and have a little fun with "I work hard or we work hard“ performing our jobs. How would most of us really know if we are working hard. Perhaps more to the point, how are we - the service recipient, customer, employer, voter, sports enthusiast - to determine if those words are merely words or if some measurement of success does or should exist. And if things evolve as planned, our Best Practices in Ops Mgt discussion will include a segment "What would Yogi Berra say?" 

  3. "I want to thank you for making this day necessary." "I didn't really say everything I said”

  4. WORKING HARD I firmly believe that almost anything is possible in this life, if you’re willing to back your dreams with hard work – and then surrounding yourself with people who understand hard work’s value and importance. - Mike Walsh

  5. Do You Work Hard?

  6. What’s the Measurement of Your Hard Work? Think About It!

  7. OPS Exercise – Quick View • Opportunity • Leadership • Vision • Character • Motivation • Focus • Strategic Thinking • Perspective • Competitive Spirit • Commitment

  8. LEADERSHIP I am working hard to ensure that working families can continue to afford to live in our city of Boston. • Mayor Thomas Menino

  9. LEADERSHIP "You can observe a lot just by watching." "Baseball is 90% mental – the other half is physical."

  10. VISION “A dream doesn’t become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work.” -Colin Powell

  11. VISION • "I made a wrong mistake” • "The other teams could make trouble for us if they win."

  12. OPPORTUNITY • “Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.” -Thomas Edison • “There is no substitute for hard work.” -Thomas Edison

  13. OPPORTUNITY "If the fans don't come out to the ball park, you can't stop them.“ "It's like deja vu all over again."

  14. FORWARD THINKING “If people knew how hard I worked to achieve my mastery, it wouldn’t seem so wonderful after all.” -Michelangelo

  15. FORWARD THINKING • "You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I'm not hungry enough to eat six." • "I knew I was going to take the wrong train, so I left early."

  16. CHARACTER “Hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses, and some don’t turn up at all.” -Sam Ewing

  17. CHARACTER • "Nobody goes there anymore; it's too crowded." • "He must have made that before he died."

  18. MOTIVATION The only way to get people to like working hard is to motivate them. Today, people must understand why they're working hard. Every individual in an organization is motivated by something different Rick Pitino

  19. MOTIVATION "You give 100 percent in the first half of the game, and if that isn't enough in the second half you give what's left."

  20. COMPETITIVE SPIRIT Working hard is very important. You're not going to get anywhere without working extremely hard. - George Lucas

  21. COMPETITIVE SPIRIT "Think! How the hell are you gonna think and hit at the same time?" • "I always thought that record would stand until it was broken."

  22. PERSPECTIVE “The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary.” -Vincent “Vince” Lombardi

  23. PERSPECTIVE "Why buy good luggage? You only use it when you travel." "90% of the putts that are short don't go in."

  24. BUSINESS FOCUS My success just evolved from working hard at the business at hand each day. Johnny Carson

  25. BUSINESS FOCUS "I don't know (if they were men or women fans running naked the field). They had bags over their heads.“

  26. Working Hard • I've just been working hard, trying to get some good stuff to come out. David Duval • It's important to have the right agent - people that are working hard for you. But an actor needs to be in control of their career no matter how good the representation is. Joel McHale • I learned the value of hard work by working hard. Margaret Mead • “Life grants nothing to us mortals without hard work.” Horace

  27. “Striving for success without hard work is like trying to harvest where you haven’t planted.” -David Bly • Some coaches are on power trips. I've never needed somebody to tell me I'm not working hard enough. Mark Warkentin • I think that my biggest attribute to any success that I have had is hard work. There really is no substitute for working hard. Maria Bartiromo • I like feeling like an ox at the end of the day. I like working hard. - Rachael Ray

  28. A few more Yogi-isms • "It was impossible to get a conversation going; everybody was talking too much." • "It gets late early out there." • "Texas has a lot of electrical votes." • "It ain't the heat; it's the humility." • "He hits from both sides of the plate. He's amphibious.“ • "The game's isn't over until it's over.“
