And it’s Shocking!

I’m in Australia, just watched “the race that stops a nation.” It truly does! It has as long as I can remember. When I was a little girl, we used to listen to the race on the radio our teacher brought to school. It’s the first Tuesday of November, every year, and the big race is over and reported on by 3:30 pm.

I’ve been in the country for a week and every day people are talking about who will win or who they want to win or which horse they’re betting on. Every one is into it. I love it! What a tradition!

We watch the horses cross the finish line, and the horse owners and trainers are jumping up and down as Shocking, their horse wins the Melbourne Cup. If only we could do that in our corporate offices when our teams accomplish good things. That would be truly shocking!
