Do you have a credo?
I don't... not yet!
A creed is like a credo, except it usually boils down the company values to an inspiring phrase or two that reminds the team who they are.
(It's different than a mission statement, which serves to keep the focus on a company's broad goals.)
Don't worry-- there's no quiz on this.
Today I want to tell you about the Kit-Cat Creed. For almost 90 years it has guided the company that makes the Kit-Cat Klocks (pictured above, not to be confused with Kit Kat candy bars). Their credo is so fantastic that I might borrow it as my credo.
First, some fun facts about these iconic feline time-tellers:
- They've been around since 1932.
- They have always been made in the USA.
- They were designed to spread happiness during the Great Depression.
Put a smile on everyone's face;Love in everyone's heart;Energy in everyone's body;and Be a positive force in everyone's life!
And to that I say, "Yes, Let's!"
Who's with me?
Full disclosure: I have no rights to the Kit-Cat Klock picture... but I hope it's good for their business and they don't get too mad. Check out more about this cool company at their website.
