It has been 7 years since I left the workforce at the”Foods”. Many of the people that I worked with have either moved on to different jobs or retired. One manager (I’ll call him Mr. P) has entered the teaching arena at UW-Oshkosh. He teaches undergraduate business courses at night.
One of Mr. P’s classes is doing case studies on Company DNA. I guess the DNA signifies identification of all the parts that make up a company. With the “deep” understanding of a company assets and culture (DNA), techniques can be applied to continually improve the company. Huh?
Mr. P had one of his students contact me to do a case study on the “Foods”. I inquired as to whether I get paid for this effort and I was informed that it was “giving back” to develop future business leaders. Now let me get this straight, Mr. P gets paid to teach and I work gratis with his students. Sounds like he learned his lessons in finance well.
Stay tuned. You all will learn about corporate DNA whether you want to or not.
Debs is back home and at last contact had her heart rhythm was normal and the medication was working. I guess there is a checkup in a week. Hopefully they got it right this time.
Nana is training all the staff at Rocky Knoll how to do things right! She seems to be in control.
Stay warm.
Love,
Dad
