Suggestion box; The place where good idea go to die and be buried. Great ideas need a life, and they need the brains, toughness, focus and stayed minds on the goal, they need the arms to grab it, as well as the legs to run with it.
If you're anything like most companies, you too may have logged previous attempts and failures to support great ideas which should have worked to improve something or maybe many things within the company. When they fall short, it's logged as a failure, recalled with every new mention of any new idea...to dampen the enthusiasm which may be justified, but you'll run smack-dab into those who well know and may say, "Oh no, here we go with more work on another lame effort to change things that don't have a chance."

When you log your very next win, changes are made and it's seen and felt by everyone, your next idea and step to success is not far behind.

•He may be able to suggest a new tack, a way to check something else or maybe a simpler way of something you tried which came close to a fix, can be tweaked a little to work temporarily until the permanent repair or corrective change is made.
• The possibilities are endless for the good of your company, which could begin with one simple phone or email.

- Dig up those old coffers or coffins of ideas. We can help you dust them off, bring the good ones back to life and check the options and plan a better strategy on any idea with a worthy mission with promise to change the entire culture of a company, or issue, department or operation at a time.
- Knowing what has been thought of before, and maybe never tried, or if they were never really rolled-out right to give them a fair shot and chance to work, doesn't mean they were bad, they just weren't unfurled like a flag has to be, to be truly be seen.

You and your staff must get behind the work willingly, and be equally determined with a persistence which will bring it to pass, with a an effort that will make you and everyone else proud.
