<description>Thanks for that nugget Jeff.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You are correct. I never say get rid of processes...I say let people &lt;br&gt;be themselves. Process is important.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Zappos uses processes...I know they do. BUT they allow the process to &lt;br&gt;define the work not the people. That&#039;s my argument...don&#039;t build a &lt;br&gt;process that takes the humanity out of your business.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks for stopping by!</description>

<description>Eric, some food for thought .. There is no such thing as an absence of process.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63WFjoFiXns&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63WFjoFiXns&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;At 3:38 in this video, Tony Hsieh starts with the phrase &quot;Every rep is trained...&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;If we&#039;re out of stock, check 3 competitor websites and refer this to the customer.&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This is a process. It&#039;s a human-centric process. But, it is a process.</description>
