And I put them all together, and there was a lot of commonality on both sides, both parties, the one – the upper management and the staff. And once we got to those commonalities, I met with them individually. And then I met with them in small groups and we just shared the misconceptions that people had and misunderstandings.

It went from an organization that was having just tremendous turnover every year to a year later, they were averaging around 6% turnover and they were well in the double digits before. And all it was for me, I say all it was, I tend to simplify things, but I know the work was pretty instrumental.

It was a situation where it just turned things around and it became an organization instead of being or having a reputation of being a toxic workplace to an organization where people were applying to work there when there were no roles open. They wanted to be a part of it because they knew and heard that this was a great place to work. And it was the same people.

It wasn't a case of where we just fired everybody and turned everything around. No, it was the same people that were there before. And the majority of them are still there.

It speaks volumes to if they are, and this is a common thing, if the organization and the upper management and the employees as well are willing to be open about some opportunities and suggestions on how to make things better, if they're open to it, to give it a try, then they have a fighting chance.

If they're close-minded and they just keep blaming everybody else, there's no common ground to be found, unfortunately, and those organizations will continue to struggle. That was definitely a win. An organization where it wasn't as challenging was the opposite effect. They were an organization that was doing well, but then decided because there was some

There you go. Yeah, definitely. And there was some power brokers that wanted more power and felt that their way was the best way to go. And not typically a wrong idea to think that. But their approach was a bit abrasive, lacked merit, lacked proper research, lacked all kinds of different things. And then they ended up letting go some key people that was making that organization thrive.

And then that organization went from being really successful, always in profit, to an organization that lost revenue, lost key people, and is not doing well. For me, it was a situation, and I think the biggest lesson learned is... And this goes back to a talk that I attended years ago that isn't related, but there's some similarity to it. It was a health symposium.

So it was a day-long health conference talking about different programs and initiatives you could implement in your healthcare organization. And there was a physician that was giving a talk and his talk was about weight loss. And one of the things that I learned from that, and I didn't know this before, is that Our body's natural inclination is for it to get to the weight of our highest weight.
