What's on your T-Shirt?

I spoke at a conference last week in Germany. After the event I went to a drinks reception and met some of the delegates. I had the opportunity to speak with the VP of Communications who was to speak at the conference the next day.

She wanted to pose a question to the delegates, which was simply if you had to wear a t-shirt with a slogan on it what would that slogan be? Would it be "Not My Problem", "I'm Busy", or would it read "Have Time", "I'm Here to Help". She reflected that Superman had a giant letter S on his rather fetching blue top, and that when asked what he believed in and stood for he always answered "Truth, Justice and the American Way".

Though in today's world such sentiment may seem out of touch with the harsh realities of the geo-political map of our globe, Superman (who first appeared in 1934 as the depression still held much of the US economy in its grip) was very clear about what he stood for.

I really liked the thought provoking sentiment of the VP's talk "What would you have on your t-shirt?" I have thought about this and have got a few ideas that I will share with you in a few weeks time.

The reason for this is I want to run a small competition for the blog readership. It is called, What’s On Your T-Shirt? Send me a description of what you would have printed on your t-shirt and what the values are that it stands for.

Now there has to be a prize, every competition needs a winner, so the prize will be a one hour free coaching call (by phone) anywhere in the world, at our expense. Plus a guest article will be published on this web blog, before the end of June.

Send entries to janet@siegerinternational.com.

Closing date for entries Monday 28th May, 2007.
