Ah yes. I so agree with Tony, who MODELS for people the behavior he expects and if he is warm too, he rewards them for it. He makes them see that they are PART of something good and allows them to know that they too can be successful on their own if they wish. I would guess his goal is not to see who is stealing or doing something wrong, because he probably knows his people and they know him and that goes a long way in running a business with less "shrinkage". I called on many small businesses in one of my prior jobs and the most successful ones were hands on, on site, and with management and ownership not afraid to get dirty and stay late.
Good for Tony...with his white hair, my kinda guy....and good for you Chris, who chose to share it with us.
