What’s 212?
At 211 degrees, water is hot.
At 212 degrees, it boils.
And with boiling water, comes steam.
And with steam, you can power a train.
One extra degree makes all the difference.
212 (two-twelve) is inviting metaphor that helps people better connect to the importance of extra attention, effort, and care.
Years ago, I put the idea into a short book. With time and some two-twelving by many, the message became valuable to a lot of people and organizations. (It makes a great keynote.)
You can find the book and its reinforcement products at Successories. You can also find my other messages there (Lead Simply, Cross The Line, Smile & Move, and Love Your People).
If you need a speaker for an upcoming event, let’s talk.
