With the help of Yogi Berra, we will discuss andhave a little fun with "I work hard or we work hard“performing our jobs. How would most of us reallyknow if we are working hard. Perhaps more to thepoint, how are we - the service recipient, customer,employer, voter, sports enthusiast - to determine ifthose words are merely words or if somemeasurement of success does or should exist. Andif things evolve as planned, our Best Practices in OpsMgt discussion will include a segment "What wouldYogi Berra say?"
