Leadership Tip
One Season at a Time
A sign in Nordstrom’s window
the day before Thanksgiving said
that they would be decorating their windows
on Friday for the holiday season.
The company believes in celebrating
one holiday at a time.
What if the rest of the country felt this way?
We would not be seeing
Halloween decorations in August or
hearing round the clock Christmas carols
in October as one local radio station plays.
Nordstrom’s philosophy is a
strong statement of corporate values.
In addition, it provides a lesson we can
all follow in this busy time of year.
Be present. Celebrate one event at a time.
As we rush around in this overscheduled season,
do not lump all the activities together or
rush to check them off the list.
By focusing on one moment at a time
or doing less, you will truly enjoy
the spirit of the season.
