Engage

Tom Suddes | December 12, 2008

Martin Luther King Said,

“I HAVE A DREAM.”

He didn’t say,

“I HAVE A STRATEGIC PLAN.”

Then, Andy Grove said,

“ENGAGE. THEN PLAN.”

Then, Goose said to Maverick,

“ENGAGE, MAV, ENGAGE!!!”

This is our For Impact Challenge to you for 2009:

ENGAGE!!!

    This works. Fed up with nothing happening, I drove to DC and barged-in on our two senators and my congressman, and asked, “What’s it take to get the Census Bureau to pay attention to this veteran’s crummy little patent that will save them $100Million in the 2010 census?”
    The next day a senator had Census chieftans squirming in his conference room, asking my questions for me while I watched. Now my team is frantically preparing a $10M “unsolicited” proposal due this Monday.

    This took place a couple of weeks ago, but I think what happened is what Nick’s WOW is about.

    I hit reply too early… also meant to say that I love the connection from MLK to Top Gun… don’t see that ever.
