Successful people are resilient!
2003: 66 seconds to Ulrich




                Lance avoids a fallen
                Beloki on the day’s
                final descent into Gap.
                Beloki would break a
                leg, shoulder, wrist,
                arm and pelvis in a
                80km/h crash.

                Lance shows his off-
                road skills.

Lessons from Lance
Lessons from Lance


   Strong teams focus on performance

Get the right People.

Results Count.

CANI: Ask, “How can
we be better?”

Set challenging goals.

Measure.           “We cannot motivate people, we can only
                   influence what they are motivated to do.”
The Service Equation




Service = Experience - Expect
The Service Equation


People expect only two things
1. That you know they are there
2. That they made the right choice by coming
to you to satisfy their need
