Check-In: Inner Growth

It's time for a check-in! As a company, it's important that we teach and train our employees in the tasks necessary to complete their jobs. At ADMO, we're also concerned about the whole person and any personal growth goals our employees may have. We are a better community when we recognize and see each other as more than our internal goals and tasks.

Self-awareness and reflection is key for growth. Take a moment and see how you measure up against this checklist:

Do you accept your flaws and mistakes?
Are you able to differentiate solitude and loneliness?
Are you more self-aware of your behavior?
How often is your happiness determined by others?
Do you let things flow?
Do you understand everyone is unique in their own way?
Do you focus on what you can control?
How often do you worry about what you can't control?
Do you have a growth mindset?

Take a few quiet minutes to reflect on these items. One of our Key Values at ADMO is Improvement (Growth). It's important that we grow as an organization and within our roles. A growth mindset and a willingness to identify areas for improvement is imperative for individual improvement.

Chick-fil-a has made a name for itself that reflects the purpose above. Certainly, stewardship and positivity are hallmarks of the Chick-fil-a experience and corporate structure. What is your corporate purpose? Is your team aligned with it? "Anytime an organization lacks alignment, the opportunity for reaching its full potential is squandered." ( Randy Gravitt ). ...

The Servant - Introduction

This week at ADMO, we started a new training with our supervisors and other manufacturing leaders. Based on a recommendation from our Molding Manager, Hugo, we asked the team to read the book " The Servant: A Simple Story About The True Essence of Leadership " by James C. Hunter. This book had been impactful to him in his past leadership training and he thought it would be helpful for our team right now. Over the coming weeks, we will be following along with John Daily as he embarks on a journey to discover the secrets of leadership at a weeklong retreat at a remote Benedictine monastery. As we move through this process, some of the information will seem simple, but profound. Other themes might be considered risky to talk about in a business setting. The author has this to say about it: I feared if I addressed business audiences and started talking about love, Human Resources people might go into spontaneous human combustion with cries of 'Mr. Hunter, we're trying ...
