This quote could apply to any of the
casino opening projects I (or anyone else who’s done one) did. When we recruited
our initial team for the Mirage we had to start where we were: evaluating
plans, developing budgets, and creating timelines. We interviewed people that
had opened companies in the then recent past: the information they gave us
proved invaluable in finalizing our plans. These provided the foundation for
all of the programs and processes we developed and became part of the
orientation we gave to everyone hired for this project. This approach was how
we learned the value of strategic planning, effective communications, and a professional
approach to our work. Professionalism brings the structure, discipline and
drive that make any project successful. You are most likely an integral part of
the team you’re on and your colleagues surely rely on the professionalism you
bring to the job everyday. So remember to start where you are, use what you
have and do what you can today.
