We just experienced a promotion from within as opposed to a new manager candidate  hired from the outside. The wisdom of our company seeing the capabilities of this already oriented person to the flow of the workplace, the best skills and enthusiasm of each employee, allowed our whole team to exhale a sigh of relief. This manager has met privately with several of us as she navigates her new role and already the flow of efficiency had almost doubled.

If the daily structure is being dealt with by a mind that does critical thinking and problem siolving with minimal drama, the energy is freed up to go into daily creativity instead of frustrating irregularities.

I am a right-brain thinker and this manager has a left-brain style, but it works because she enjoys the quirks that I bring to my day as I am embracing the joy of these differences. I also have a work ethic that is old school and this constancy on my part does a lot to cement a working team environment. 

I look forward to her coaching me as our computer tools change and the digital world expands. Bravo!
