Engineer a Solution to Minimize Waste

Wednesday, October 19, 2011 by Tom Anderson

Eliminate it at the source and that's what hospitals and equipment suppliers have been doing. Case in point, you don't see any of the old mercury thermometers being used at the hospital anymore. When looking for ways to minimize waste, always try to look at the source and see if you can engineer a potential...Read More »

Change Is Slow But It Is Happening

Wednesday, September 28, 2011 by Tom Anderson

Last week I took my lunch break and sat in a downtown park. It was a beautiful day but I noticed something different as I look at the activities around the park. The park was surrounded by city streets and I'd been coming here over lunch during the past several years since our office had relocated from the suburbs to the downtown area. I usually came when it was great weather and ate my lunch. What was different? I noticed a dramatic increase in the bike traffic along the city streets versus the...

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Monday, September 12, 2011 by Tom Anderson
In the workplace, personal protective equipment (PPE) needs to be utilized when necessary. Have you evaluated your workplace and jobs for the hazards that may require the usage of PPE? And don't overlook the proper equipment when you are doing things in your personal life. If you are riding a bike, wear a helmet! I am speaking from personal experience. Without a helmet, my life would have been forever changed this summer when I experienced a bad crash on a bicycle. Although I ended up with a...

Doing Fine

Friday, September 9, 2011 by Tom Anderson
Several of my clients have left messages asking how I was doing (as I recover from my bicycle accident). First of all, thank you for your concerns and I am doing great. The recovery process is now in its 8th week and all the pain from the broken collarbone and hip are gone. I am very fortunate to have a great support system both at home and work. Thank you to my clients, family, friends, and everyone that has expressed concern.

My Milestones
