To all of the KI community of HR, HCM, Talent Management leaders in the world:
I wanted to take a minute to wish you and your family a Happy Mothers Day 2007. As you are aware, one of the company philosophies around KI is celebration, and today is truly a day for that.
One of my favorite topics to talk about when it comes to the role of parenting and mothers is the role of preparedness. To me, this is one of the most important things that a mother can do in the world is prepare their children and others in their life for the REAL WORLD they are about to enter. If we look at the definition of preparedness, it reads something like:
*+_To be properly expectant, organized, or equipped_</</b>
On this truly extraordinary day, take a minute out of food, gift giving and hopefully quality family time to think about what you are doing in your role of mother, parent or mentor to think about preparedness and the amazing opportunity we each have on a daily basis to give this gift to children and others in our lives. The more we can leverage each of our amazing life experiences and teach, not tell, how those precious experiences will impact others for the remainder of their lives, the more we do to play our role in the future.
Mothers are truly special. They love, care, support and understand unconditionally; which is something that we don���t often find in life. Whether your mother is close or far, living or watching from some other place; take time to thank them for bringing you into this world and give back to the world by preparing someone for the future. A specific thank you to the mothers that make up Knowledge Infusion and the mothers of those that are part of this special community; you make our world a better place each day.
Have a great day and Happy Mothers Day!!
Another infusion of knowledge...
