                                        &lt;p&gt;No matter how hard you try, little will get done if your front line staff is not working smart and hard to make it happen.  In the &lt;b&gt;Grass Roots Innovation&lt;/b&gt; workshop, your employees learn how to find countless opportunities for performance improvement, cost cutting, improved customer relations and culture change.&lt;/p&gt;
