For Managers Only: 6 Word Management Story Contest

by Darlene McDaniel on March 28th, 2008

My colleague David Zinger, over at Slacker Manager has an AWESOME contest going on. It’s called the 6 Management Story Contest. His idea for the contest came from Jodee Bock who wrote a post called What’s Your Story (In Six Words..?) I like this contest, because it should challenge you to think about who you are as a manager. Do you know?

Take a moment and visit Slacker Manager. Read some of the comments people have left. My 6 Word Management Story is Living to Shape Minds and Destinies. That’s who I am. It is my mission in life. And I have been doing it for a long time. What’s your story? Can you declare it in six words or less?

Contest Details:

You have 6 words to capture your management approach, style, and way of working.

Write your 6 work management epiphany in the comments over at Slacker Manager. David will send a real Canadian “Toonie” with a polar bear in the middle (Canadian coin) to the person who writes the coolest management 6 word or less story.

David’s 3 teenagers will judge the winner(s). You have until April 1st (6 days from now) to get your comment posted. That means you have to write just one word a day to complete this assignment. I know you want to play! I did that in six words!
