       PROFILE:
       Describe the situation or event related to the individual's or team's performance.
       "How Might We?"
       Follows curiosity to form an idea; asks questions to test the idea; scans multiple
       information and data sources that may lead to additional questions or a potential
       solution.

       When GOJO Leadership was shown the initial PURELL Singles concept the interest
       level was very low?ok they said they didn?t like it:)

       A small group of GOJO individuals felt differently and asked the question ?How
       might we? find out if PURELL Singles are a solution that the world needs.  The
       team developed a Fail FAST, Fail CHEAP approach that involved conducting quick
       experiments internally and externally (e.g., local day care centers, gym, grocery
       stores and drug stores) to learn and gain insights.  I initial feedback was very
       positive.  Team became more passionate about PURELL Singles!  GOJO
       Leadership was still lukewarm on PURELL Singles and questioned if our paying
       customers would find the PURELL Singles meaningfully unique.  Team big break
       came when ?by chance? at a healthcare trade show (APIC) that a large healthcare
       kit company was wowed by the PURELL Singles?the brand, the formula and ease
       of use.

       The cross-function team didn?t always agree on approach for PURELL Singles, but
       was able to work out their difference as a result of their passion for making PURELL
       Singles a success at GOJO, across all the market we serve.


       Describe in detail the individual's or team's notable behaviors.
        ? Curiosity ? constantly asking how might we do?to meet our objectives for PURELL
        Singles.

        ? Determination & Passion ? believing in what we are doing is good for our
        customers and helping us achieve the GOJO Purpose of saving lives and making
        life better through well-being solutions (e.g., PURELL Singles.


        ? Fail FAST, Fail CHEAP approach ? Yes plan, but do more of the doing /
        experimenting to learn, learn, learn.

       What were the results of the individual’s or team’s behaviors?
