Movie Reviews of Sesame Street - Put Down the Duckie
Movie Review: Put Down the Duckie--and Pick Up a Book!
Summary: 5 Stars
If you grew up in the first Sesame Street era or are blessed with children or grandchildren, you may remember the hilarious upbeat tune, "Put Down the Duckie," that featured more than a dozen celebrities and musicians, including Paul Simon, John Candy and Danny Devito. Jazzman Hoots the Owl is teaching Ernie to play the saxophone, but Ernie won't put down his yellow rubber duckie.
Hoots sings, "You gotta put down the duckie. Put down the duckie. Put down the duckie, if you wanna play the saxophone!" In my management workshops, I use this DVD to illustrate the core competency in the Book Bucket, as described in my book, Mastering The Management Buckets: 20 Critical Competencies for Leading Your Business or Non-profit.
I tell business, nonprofit and church leaders, "If you're passionate about your mission and your Big Holy Audacious Goal (BHAG), you must practice, practice and practice the art of management." The Bible says you must "lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily ensnares us" (Hebrews 12:1, NIV) if you want to lead and manage with excellence. Put down the duckie!
So...what duckie are you willing to put down today so you can pick up a book and be a leader of excellence? Mastering the 20 management buckets may seem overwhelming to your team members--maybe even to you. But, to mix metaphors, how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.
Add some hoopla to your next staff meeting and show this rousing sing-along video clip, "Put Down the Duckie."
