Like any business going through growing pains we have had our share of people problem's. The very thing essential for getting any vision to fruition (people) is also the very thing that if not lead properly can dismantle an entire  organization. So we had an attack of the D's and I was faced with the task of handling them so we could stay on track and reach our destination...so what did i do? I had to D.E.A.L. with them. 

What are the D's? Here are a few...(let's add to them...if you have other D's please respond with what they are)

2. Division – The act or process of dividing. To cause to separate into opposing factions;disunite:

So we attacked the D’s by D.E.A.L.ing with them...
