Have you ever encountered a Red Door? Last weekend I visited Savannah, GA and what a cool city it is. It was an Oktoberfest weekend, and I had a great time, while sporting my Alabama T-shirt in South Georgia. I had fun sitting with a bunch of Georgia fans at one of the local sports bars, while watching college football, and discussing life. While strolling around in one those beautiful neighborhoods seeing how “the rich people live”, I came across this red door and it caught my attention. This well-kept red door, on this older building with the numbers 340 on it, stood out among all of those fancy homes, where the rich people live. They live well. While driving home, I begin to think about the significance of the “red door” and why it caught my attention. See, red doors can represent a lot of things and have throughout history, like “opportunity”, and the list goes on and on. You can Google that one. Have you ever walked down a long hallway and all of the doors are closed? Not one of those “doors” were open. Have you ever walked down a hallway that had all one colored doors except for one “Red Door”? Which door did you notice? Life is a lot like a hallway, with a series of doors. We walk down it, knock on some, some open and some don’t. We walk through some and pass on others. Some are locked, some are not. But then, there are the “Red Doors”, those special doors that opened that one opportunity that changed your career or life, and it was opened for you, by someone else. Leadership can be like a doorway! All of us in leadership can have the ability to be someone’s “Red Door” at different points in our career and life. You never know when you might be that one opportunity that colleague, direct report, new hire, or young person just starting out in life, just might need at that moment, in their life. Could you be someone's Red Door? Yes, that’s deep and we could camp out here for a minute, but we’ll leave that for another time. So, remember, motivate someone in a positive way today, knock on doors, be that “Red Door”, paint it, if you have to, and watch out for dragons. #bestlife50

Am I just asking for trouble? Or is the start of a long-term succession plan? My daughter is doing a part-time summer job with the business. If it goes well she will carry on working a day a week for us when school returns... This could, if I get my evil plans implemented, lead to her eventually running the How To Make Partner side of the business... [insert evil cackle]. Or, which is more likely, we agree that her working for me is not a good thing... Who has employed their children in their business? Any tips? Paul Donno Paul Miller Jade Donno
