Today’s guest post is over at Brad Lomenick’s blog. Brad heads up Catalyst and is currently the closest thing I have to a boss. This post may change that, due to the fact that I’ve decided to come clean about how Brad truly runs the organization. On the outside, it’s a well-oiled machine. On the inside, though…well, I’ll just let you see for yourself.

The post begins:

I’ve had the privilege of working with Catalyst for the past few years now. I love the organization, but was really surprised by how Brad runs the place. It’s very, um, unconventional. Honestly, I’m still not quite used to it. For instance…

+ As a creative exercise, he makes us confess our darkest sins to the group using play-dough as a visual aid.

+ He requires his entire staff to address him as “Crème L” (his rap name).

+ He only allows his staff to chew watermelon gum.

+ He hired one person who’s sole job responsibility is to research whatever hat Joel Houston is currently wearing and make sure he has four of them on hand.

+ He had a dentist’s chair installed in his office, complete with rinsing bowl. He refuses to work unless he is sitting in it.

Head on over to Brad’s blog to find out more of these dark truths.

I sure hope I’m not out of a job after this.
