Speaker Biography - Jon Petz

Having PASSION about your daily activities originates from doing your BEST work while having the MOST fun. Having passion and pride in what you do starts with yourself, how you approach each day and realizing the importance of your actions and how they effect your organization, your customers customer, your team or your family.

PRIDE is going the extra mile, even while no one is watching and no extra recognition is expected. But what does it mean to each of us to go that extra mile? What can happen with that one extra degree of effort? It can and will have exponential results, especially when it's your "showtime."

Each of us needs to realize that if we wish to be an appreciating asset and not depreciate like most all corporate assets, we must make a personal commitment to work on ourselves. By identifying the fact that each of us needs to look for ways to add value to our processes or our teams we can continue to grow and achieve as an organization. This INNOVATION is critical to the future success of each of us in the 21 st century as we are constantly seeking ways to add value while not necessarily having to spend more money.
