What do you know about the Victory Ships?

The Victory ship was a class of cargo ship produced in large numbers by North American shipyards during World War II. They participated in high-speed convoys with a total of 531 Victory ships built. Tampa just so happens to be home to one of the few remaining ships from this era named, “American Victory.”

Now honoring 76 years of service, on September 2, 2021, a dinner cruise and celebration of American Victory will be held on the Yacht Starship in support of her 2022 scheduled Dry Dock for refurb and repairs. Spark Growth was delighted to support this unique asset reflecting America’s tenacity and innovation. You can learn more about the American Victory at their museum website: https://www.americanvictory.org/

It was a pleasure to attend the Victory Over Japan celebration where we connected with other residents of the area to honor our troops today and in the past. Thank you to everyone who joined the event.

Think Big.

What can you really do? You can change the world! That may sound scary, but it starts by showing up, taking action, making your voice heard.

At Spark Growth – we start by showing up. It’s funny how much success in life comes simply by showing up. If you don’t show up, you don’t get to play.

We take action. Thinking big doesn’t mean you have to start big – by starting small and building trust, you can do bigger things. You may have heard the old adage, “How do you eat an elephant?” And the answer is, “One bite at a time.”

Read our post on 5 Often Overlooked Issues That Can Keep You from Reaching Your Goals.

We participate in the conversation. This is the conversation of collaboration, asking “What Could We Do Together?”

By thinking big, you can reach for your ultimate. Your Massive Transformative Purpose is the higher, aspirational purpose of your organization. With your MTP big enough to rally around, it inspires and it moves people and hearts. Start small, build trust by doing little things, and move forward toward BIG!

A Massive Transformative Purpose (MTP) is the higher, aspirational purpose of the organization, capturing the hearts and minds of those both inside and (especially) outside of the organization. (Don’t miss this video about MTP)

Our global context and consortium of thought leaders provides us with a unique vantage point for creative problem solving. At Spark Growth we Think Big, and we can show you how too.
