And a Few More Faces of Roundpeg
In October, I started the Faces of Roundpeg as a regular feature on our blog. My intention was to write a series of blog posts leading up to our 10 year anniversary. The posts have been funny, sentimental and serious. They have allowed me to reconnect and say some long overdue thank yous. The response has been great, as I have shared the contributions big and small from the many people who have who have played a role in helping us become who we are today. So this week, here is one last list of people who are part of the fabric of Roundpeg. Nick Carter who stood me up the first time we...

This post has nothing to do with marketing or small businesses. Please come back tomorrow and we’ll have more of that information. This post is about eulogizing a tiny, smelly, loving little critter who wormed her way into our hearts and left us much too soon.

As they showed us around their examination rooms and surgery suite, we couldn’t help but notice the small cat with beautiful reddish-brown fur and huge green eyes.

Despite that fact, they each played an important role in the formation of this company. They are my bosses: Three of the many people I had a chance to work for and with over my career. Much of what I know about being an effective leader, I learned from these three people. Tom Carr - A corporate psychologist told Tom one of two things would happen if he hired me: We would either be the most amazing team the company had ever seen, or we...

I learned a long time ago, if you want to be successful you need to surround yourself with people who don’t think the same way you do and who are good at the things you aren’t. If you are very lucky you will find someone who cares enough to disagree with you. I am very lucky, because I found Allison. She argues with me, she asks pointed questions, she corrects my grammar and spelling, and tells me when I screw up. As annoying as that is, I can’t imagine life at Roundpeg without her. Allison loves structure and routine, so when I suggest something new, some change in our operating...

Another week where if we waited an hour here in Indianapolis, the weather changed. We’ve had ice, snow and on the rare side for January, thunderstorms. Our blogs this week seem to have followed the pattern of one of our favorite interview questions…so weather you favor words, pictures or numbers, we’ve covered it in at least one of our blogs during the past week. If you’ve missed one or several, here’s a quick recap: Saturday – Faces of Roundpeg: The Boy Band Lorraine’s ode to Taylor & Jay and the way things used to be. Sunday – Make...
