Trees Make Good Teachers.

Trees make good teachers.

They lecture in my business school.

They’re not big talkers, I grant you.

But no less good teachers.

Especially for work, for your business.

They have achieved much of what you strive for:

Year on year growth.
Super long term, sustainable proposition.
Dependable.
Reliable.
Ever present.

Good times.

How to be more tree?

- Be invested in your community. Trees love a bit of give and take.
- Focus on little and often growth. No giant strides. Just a little and often.
- Know your limits. They don’t grow forever. Nothing does.
- Embrace the pollard. The chop. The cull. By shrinking back every few years, they embrace new opportunity for growth.
