Vision and 5 values for the Crossroads Office
26 December 2008
Vision: Luke H is impressed. Luke is our standard. When he wants to hang in the Crossroads office we have achieved our goal. We are still a long way off this.
- Neat and tidy. I managed this pretty consistently all year. I bought a vacuum cleaner and emptied the bins weekly. I cleaned and dusted.
- No accumulated rubbish and crap - For some reason the Crossroads office ended up as a dumping ground for crap. I took a whole trailer load of it to the tip late in the year. Churches and offices have to get better at throwing out donated crap.
- Thankful - We don’t pay rent and our landlords are awesome if a little Christian crazy.
- Hospitality - I didn’t quite nail this one this year but simple things such as making sure the tea and coffee are well stocked up and fresh. Maybe some icy cold cans.
- Not Belkirk - We want our office to be progressive with money allocated each year for small improvements. Maybe a nicely painted feature wall and no junk see point two.

Great start, Mike, but I think you need another two points to impress Luke. He won't be happy with anything that's merely organisationally well done. It's gotta look and feel impressive, too.
He probably won't be impressed until it looks like the office @ Charlotte Peterswald or CCC... how do you phrase that?!!?!?!
Point 5 said a "feature wall"... that's aesthetics and CCC isn't it.
Oh yeah... it's all there... but I think it needs to be brought out all the more if you really wanna grab Luke.
Perhaps 'trendy corrugated iron feature wall, fishbowl, vinyl couches and small roman pillar with fresh fruit on top' would be getting closer :-D
