So often the response to "hey, folks, we could do better and we should" is along the lines of "not our fault/nobody told me/not my job/we followed the rules". <br /><br />It's great to read about an organization where the response is "yes, we can and should do better, here's where we see we can improve, and let's talk about more ways to do so".<br /><br />I imagine it's taken a lot of attention and energy from a lot of people at Vita to cultivate and encourage that attitude. Impressive, admirable, and definitely something to emulate!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-838870789914329372011-01-13T08:09:51.219-05:002011-01-13T08:09:51.219-05:00I sure wish the organization that I work for was &...I sure wish the organization that I work for was "Vita-esque". Sounds like a very responsive, forward thinking group. Thanks for reminding some of us that have been working "in the system" for a while, that such organizations are indeed out there. It helps us strive to be better.Sherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12213266574971461657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-75942984426239840942011-01-13T01:02:08.101-05:002011-01-13T01:02:08.101-05:00It looks like you've had a huge impact on your...It looks like you've had a <b>huge</b> impact on your organization and community. But then, it does sound like a pretty good organization to begin with. I only wish you could "translate" it for our organizations 100 miles to the south of you!Clayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09424036357963352399noreply@blogger.com
