With the Growth Summit starting Tuesday and our Gazelles Coaching meetings not beginning until Monday this is a modification of a blog (Subjectivity & Objectivity – Required Business Disciplines) written in September of 2010 and another (Critical Numbers - People/Relationship Drivers)in December 2012 . Flying on Delta to Las Vegas reminded me of an example we often provide on the critical need for balance in setting priority for your business. I’ve updated the content to reflect the emphasis to balance the two drivers, people and productivity, in your business.

In the first or second grade I recall being in a parade of students ushered into our small home town theatre to watch the movie Ben Hur. Going to a movie back then (circa 1960) was a big event. The theatre had provided our Catholic Elementary school the entire theatre to show the movie Ben Hur. Watching a movie on the big screen, before there were big screens in every home for TV, was awe inspiring. I’ve grown to love the movie. One of the conflicts in the movie is Judah Ben Hur’s rivalry with Messala, a roman tribune.
