Mr. Van's posts have been making me think today. Thinking is always a good thing. This one me helped remember a post from another wise mentor, Rich Olivera. I've been thinking about incentives and what they could be in a business, political, educational, or sports environment.

I've wandered away from the trademark discussion and into incentives for practicing Gracious Professionalism. Sorry about that.
