Issue No. 44 of Your Weekly Staff Meeting focuses on results. Please put down your new iPhone for five minutes and think about how you communicate organizational results to your customers. Reminder: you can read the mini-reviews of more than 40 books at my Buckets Blog at www.JohnPearsonAssociates.com. |

You must focus on results, not activity. When you speak, share anecdotes—but highlight your results. Some donors respond to hype, but all donors want to see results. Take your cue from Ballmer: results, results, results.

Insights from the Management Buckets Workshop Experience Steve Ballmer mentored John Wood well. Wood also lives, eats, breathes and emails results! Below his standard email signature lines (name, phone, etc.), Wood also includes a jam-packed paragraph of recent organizational results at Room to Read. It’s a brilliant idea. John Wood’s results blurb is not about fundraising needs, events or hype. The final paragraph in his email simply documents their profound results. My thanks to Larry Entwistle—a connoisseur of results—for alerting me to this book and passing along an email he received from the author. A Starbucks gift card is enroute to my roving reporter friend.
