What's Bugging You at Work?

Dear Uncommon Leaders, 

I hope you have all been doing well and are continuing to enjoy our weekly nuggets. 

Be inspired this week to improve wherever you can and become a more uncommon leader!

Your Sunday Nugget

This Week's Question:

What is something, within your control or influence, that bugs you at work?

This Week's Challenge: 

Often we put up with annoyances, broken systems or dysfunction at work for entirely too long. I think that is because many times we have so much going on, that we don’t clearly identify what’s not working. This week, identify something you can make better and work on it. You might just find yourself a little less “bugged” at work next week.

This Week's Quote to Ponder:

“Whatever the problem, be a part of the solution. Don’t just sit around raising questions and pointing out obstacles. We’ve all worked with that person. That person is a drag.” -Tina Fey

Until next week,

LET'S GO BE UNCOMMON!
