Lacing Up Our Basketball Shoes
Ever seen a movie that felt like it was speaking directly to you? That's exactly how I felt after watching "Air." It's all about Nike and Michael Jordan, and how they shook up the athletic shoe market.
As a kid, I looked up to Jordan's boldness and Nike's dare-to-do-it attitude. I dreamed of owning a pair of Jordans, a dream that seemed far-fetched back then. Fast forward to today, at Stonefield Flavours, and we are striving to bring that same audacity and fearlessness to our journey.
Nike saw the untapped potential in a rookie named Michael Jordan. They took a massive risk, and boy, did it pay off. It wasn't just a business decision; it was a rebellion against the norm, a fight for change.
At Stonefield Flavours, we live by Nike's core principles. We recognize that change is the heart of our business. We're always on the offensive. We prioritize outstanding outcomes over perfect process. And yes, we're not afraid to challenge convention.
Nike's journey teaches us that it's not just about business, it's also about the struggle, the grit, and the determination.So we question assumptions, push ourselves and others to go beyond what's possible. We're aware of the pitfalls—bureaucracy, personal ambitions, and draining distractions. We keep our focus on what truly matters.
Our journey won't be smooth. It'll be tough, gritty, and downright hard at times. But we're prepared for it. We know our job isn't finished until we've achieved our goals.
And I truly believe that, just like Nike and Jordan, if we do things right, success will come "damn near automatic."
So here's my call to our team and everyone reading this: Embrace change. Stay on the offensive. Break boundaries. And remember, it's not just about business; it's about the battle. Let's create our own "Air" story.
Watch the movie—it's available on Amazon Prime. Share your thoughts. Let's inspire one another.
