five months ago I practiced Extreme ownership of my business. We are Third Party contracting company in charge of soccer referees. The company that we were contracted by and our team had a breakdown in Communication that over paid officials. Even though we were below selected budget we chose to pay the referees I practiced extreme ownership with saying that it was my companies mistake and should be taken out of my profits. The other Company used to getting in budget wars was surprised by the stance I took. Instead of us fighting over the budget blaming each other‘s teams. They instead agreed to split the cost with us which is very rare in this business. The company that I own has made major strides in fixing the communication problem we have hired another secretary Who soul purpose is to prevent things like this to happen in the future. If I did not practice extreme ownership the situation could have gone 10 times different and we could have lost future contracts with this company. Now we have picked up 18 more events for this group and they are our biggest partner.

Awesome example. It is great to see that you demonstrating extreme ownership caused the other company to mirror the behavior and take some financial responsibility.
Kepp getting after it.

Is the head of Hong Kong reading Extreme Ownership? As soon as I saw that Lam was citing "deficiencies in our work" and their own "bad communication" for their extradition spool-up, I sat up straight. I love it when heads of state reach out for the help they need. Makes ya wonder . . . just sayin' . . . from the headlines today . . .
"'Striking U-turn'
Analysis by Helier Cheung, BBC News, Hong Kong
It was a striking U-turn from a leader who previously struck a defiant tone.
Mere days ago, Ms Lam had vowed to press ahead with the unpopular legislation – now she has promised to "listen to different views from society".
"I feel deep sorrow and regret that deficiencies in our work – and various other factors – have stirred up substantial controversies," she said. . . . Ms Lam said she had heard the calls for her government to "pause and think". . . . She also admitted that the "explanation and communication" of the bill had not been adequate. "
O yea. Kudos, CE Lam.
