My greatest professional accomplishment of the year: I got my exec & manager teammates saying "point positive," a term from whitewater rafting and kayaking.

Meaning: when facing hazards, point people toward where to go/what to do, rather than drawing attention to everything to avoid.

A drawing showing a river rafter who has fallen out of a raft in rapids. The people still in the raft are pointing to a safe way to swim rather than at rocks to avoid. Caption: "Point positive: pointing the way to go, rather than at the problem." Drawing created by sketchplanations.
