Threads. They’re everywhere. At work, we talk in threads every day. The fragments that get our attention, focus, budgets, etc. Every time we get one thread addressed, 25 more start showing up. It’s like the fabric of our work is in a constant state of disarray. Why don’t we focus on the root cause of what’s causing the threads ??

Interesting question, isn’t it?

If we made this shift, we could possibly eliminate a group of people who have made a career pulling on threads. We need to change how we approach work. We need to identify root causes and then address them. So, the topic for the May Roundtable is – “How to Stop Chasing Threads !!”

We’ll meet at the Scarlet Oaks campus on Tuesday, 5/5/26 from 8:30am to 9:30am at Scarlet Oaks. (directions are below.) We will meet in the Annex (right next to the cafeteria).

I’d love to think that each of you collectively makes up the HR Roundtable “root cause.” To prove that point, please take a moment to RSVP to let me know if you can attend the May HR Roundtable. Send me an email at - sbrowne@larosas.com I hope you can !!

Thanks – Steve
