We recently shared a post that stirred up quite a bit of controversy all based on this comic we found online:

Today, we want to highlight some of the thought-provoking comments we received from our insightful LinkedIn community.

We have a great team at On Purpose Adventures and I'm excited to have the opportunity to share more about them in this newsletter.

Trevor Crunelle has been with us since the summer of 2021. He has facilitated a variety of Cohesion Culture™ programs with clients ranging from the credit union space to manufacturing.

As The Growth Coach he collaborates with individuals on achieving whatever goals they set for their company. Together with clients, Trevor steps back to evaluate strengths and weaknesses, map a strategy for growth, and monitor progress until all client goals are met.

Get to know more about Trevor in the Q&A below.

It's often said that failure is not fatal if you keep moving, it's merely a lesson. Let's dive into how we can embrace risk, learn from setbacks, and develop a resilient mindset.

Learning from Failure

One of the most significant benefits of failure is the opportunity to learn and grow. Each setback presents a chance to analyze what went wrong, identify areas for improvement, and adjust our approach.

May 24th is one of my favorite days of the year. Happy National Scavenger Hunt Day, LinkedIn community!

Unleash your adventurous spirit with a Scavenger Hunt to celebrate. Scavenger hunts offer a unique blend of adventure, teamwork, problem-solving, and entertainment, making them a popular activity enjoyed by people of all ages and backgrounds.

Exploration Through Scavenger Hunts

Many organizations have done the same things over and over while expecting different results. This applies to team building & bonding as well.

They gather the team together then do trust falls. Or they leave the office for a 2 hour ropes course excursion. Or they take the team bowling one afternoon.

Then leaders are surprised when the teams aren't magically communicating and working cohesively the next day.

Is your organization willing to change?

Many leaders stand by the most dangerous phrase in business: "This is how it's always been done." They have this stale mindset that just because something has worked in the past, the business never has to change.

The "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" mindset shows leaders who are only thinking about the day to day. They can't get outside this mindset to see the big picture and imagine the great heights their business could reach through dynamic change.

Our thoughts shape our reality. If we think positively, we are more likely to attract positive outcomes. The same is true with the opposite of attracting negative outcomes. This is the power of positive thinking.

Positive thinking can help us cultivate a growth mindset, which can help us achieve our goals.

When you first built your company’s business model, you likely spent hours, days, or weeks imagining every detail. You probably envisioned your product and purpose, your audience and clientele, a state-of-the-art office space, and top talent knocking down the doors to become part of your team.

But did your vision include a plan for keeping that talent engaged, productive, and dedicated to your mission?
