Christmas Goose

Connie Laughlin

Goose is very popular Christmas menu choice in Europe.  I only had Goose once at Christmas and that was in Vail.  It really was good, but it was prepared by an excellent chef.  So, I think I’ll stick with Turkey.  If you like to hunt geese, now is the time to start gearing up for your outing. 

Starting in October, geese began to efficiently migrate south in a flight pattern that takes them two to three thousand miles. They find water, nourishment, and shelter in more hospitable areas allowing them to survive year round. They do the same thing over and over. They mate, they nest, they molt, and they migrate.
We also do the same thing, the same way over and over most of the time, too.  Obviously we aren’t smart like geese because too many of us try to navigate tricky business responsibilities alone.  Is this efficient?  No.
Research shows geese add 71% more flying range by using their combined teamwork flying in the “V” pattern. Could you use a 71% boost in your business? Pair up with professionals trained in handling human resources for small to medium size businesses and add that 71% more efficiency to your operation.  Fighter pilots also use a “V” formation, as it’s easier to keep track of everyone and it assists in communication.
If you’re not personally and professionally overseeing all employee related administrative duties how do you know it’s handled effectively, legally, and that you’re covering your assets?
The generated synergy of the “V” flying formation of geese is pure leverage. If you avoid using the dynamic force of leverage you could end up working a lot harder and falling behind a lot faster.  It’s paramount to your success to have advisors in human resources and risk management and it doesn’t matter if you employ a couple or couple hundred employees.
While you’re busy generating a positive cash flow you can keep your business soaring right side up with the protection of a highly accredited PEO (professional employer organization). This advantageous alternative to doing everything in-house and possibly getting your goose cooked over time is to outsource it, as you could never hire all this expertise for what the PEO services cost! Every business owner should meet with a cream of the crop PEO.
Ensure your “V” is perfectly formed by flying in line with the pros in human resources and risk management to reduce or eliminate any potential drag on your small to medium size organization.
A formation of geese in migration is a beautiful sight when it’s recognized and appreciated for all that it is.
