I honestly didn’t know the logo was anythig but the letter H standing for Hyundai. But it is so interesting you mention the logo looks like two individuals shaking hands. I love the message behind it of trust between the company and its clients. I wonder if the color has any significance.

I had no idea about the logo for the Dominos logo. I mean yes I did notice the dice for the game dominos I didn’t know the dots had any significance. Also the colors were tirbute to the American flag. I am a regular customer of Dominos and its very interesting to know what the logo stands for. Thanks for sharing!

I am someone who uses Pinterest everyday and just looking at the logo you dont think much of it except for the fact its a P with stands for Pinterest. However the P is in the shape of a pin.

It would be a pain finding someone to replace Harper seeing as shes been in the compant for a few years now and it’s not going to be a quick and simple task to train someone, and in the long run slow down the entire team.

You make some really good points in your post, about having other workers help out with Harper’s workload. You also mention another possibility that other workers may want to leave the company because of an increase in their workload too which I hadn’t thought about.

I agree that leaders can be both made and born. But I do find your take interesting when you mention, if you had to choose one, it would be born.

I agree with the fact that using the McDonalds brothers name and buying them out of their own company creates a negative perception about the ethical principles the company first started with and even though I dont agree with it I will probably stay a customer, which is unfortunate.
