People @ Work Photo #13-Holiday Edition
Click to enlarge Santa Bob's image
In light of the holiday season, I thought that it would be fun to post a photo of Bob Hartung a colleague & generally great guy.
Bob is owner/president of Performance Gains and The CEO School. During Christmas, Bob transforms into Santa.
What really gets me about this photo, and why I find this photo so interesting, is not just how much Bob looks like the traditional idea of Santa, but his hand gesture/positioning makes the photo really standout in a funny sort of way; like “I’m watching you to see if your naughty or nice.” Bob and I also serve on the Board of Directors for the Greater O’Hare Association and I’ve become part of his Board of Advisors for the CEO School. So, knowing Bob in these capacities, this photo is indicative of how he just “gets it.” Whether it’s Santa, personal & business coaching (which is part of what Performance Gains does) or helping CEOs learn new ways of running their business, this photo, in my mind is indicative of someone who just perfectly understands the role their playing or the task they’re performing.
