Hooray - that's what friends are for at work: FISH! creates friendship
















And this is exactly what the four FISH! practices will do to you and your team.

The four practices can help any individual and any team to become ‘friends’. Well, ‘friends at work’ at least. The four practices are BE THERE, PLAY, CHOOSE YOUR ATTITUDE and MAKE THEIR DAY. These fabulous four are not just smart headlines. They are interrelated and they are very practical.

They are interrelated in the sense that you have to use all four simultaneously. You can not leave out one of them or just go with one of them. 


They are practical in the sense that everyone can practise them daily - alone and in the team. FISH! delivers a series of methods and exercises easy to use - and fun too. The leader does not have to invent ways to keep on talking about FISH! - lots of material has been invented.


Why is it vitally important that your employees are friends or ‘friends’ at work? The answer is quite easy - and you know it already. People like what they are doing with people they like. The opposite is so full of problems and conflicts: People don't like what they are doing with people they dislike. Too many people go to work disliking their job and disliking their colleagues. They have an unhappy life and they do not thrive at work. 


People that like each other do it because they are BEING THERE for one another. They PLAY with ideas and solutions. They are able to CHOOSE A HELPFUL AND APPROPRIATE ATTITUDE when things are not going so well and when things are successful. And they are able to MAKE THEIR DAY - both for colleagues and customers and bosses.


Now that you know these four FISH! practices you think you are able to go out and present them - but not so fast. Take it easy and consider it all a bit more.  


What if you show the iconic film FISH! that explains the four practices in 18 minutes? This film can be streamed and purchased on a USB stick in many languages.


What if you read the books named FISH!, FISH! STICKS, FISH! TALES and FISH! FOR LIFE?


What if you study the FISH! guide that comes with the film?


What if you appoint a HEAD OF CULTURE AND MOTIVATION that will collect all plans, measure KPIs and register celebration dates, promote the four practices internally, be the ambassador for all teams and leaders in the ongoing activities keeping the company culture alive and kicking.


This is what FISH! is about: Creating friendship and strong relationships in house. And the result is that people love what they do, every day, all year round.

Find your own will and the will of your team

I can't find my will - where did I put it?: The headline puts the matter a bit on the edge. The will is not a gland or a special center in the brain. But the will is good to get in touch with if one day you sense that it is a bit difficult to get started with anything. There are people who, without warning, start playing the piano. They find a teacher. They practice. And then all of a sudden they play for us all. There are people who start to learn a new language, to ride a mountain bike, to collect ... I myself have been practicing to become a better badminton player. There are many things to practice. To pose correctly. To move systematically. Practicing the basics. Being able to vary. To be able to mask. To hit hard. To strike softly. To endure to win. To bear to lose. It's a long catalog. One stroke I have worked on refining is the serve. A good start is crucial to whether the ball gets into play at all. That's why I've been practicing the serve and it works really ...

Commit to your purpose with FISH!

12 fishmongers and their leader became the start of a global cultural revolution:  FISH! films, books, posters, soft toy and team exercises have been a source of inspiration in many, many companies worldwide. The iconic fish shop World Famous Pike Place Fish has been an inspiration ever since the first fish was thrown in 1965. The 12 fishmongers just sat down in the back room and talked about how they could become world famous. World fame does not come by itself. It must be created every single day. Therefore they continued to meet out in the back room and talk about business for half the meeting time and about their manner of doing what they did for the other half of the meeting time. Every second Thursday. All year. A relatively simple recipe. But even though it sounds simple, there are not many who have succeeded in doing what the fishmongers did. FISH! is an  invitation  to re-awaken the self-trusting, creative spirit within each of us. FISH!  inspires  ...
