Step Back from the Baggage Claim: Business Leader Edition
“The scene is all too familiar. A couple hundred people, weary after their flight, bunch around the cold metallic baggage claim, waiting for the first bags to appear. Minutes pass. The conveyors start turning. More minutes pass. Finally bags start falling on to the conveyor. Everyone edges a little closer to the carousel.”
Those words were taken from the review of Jason Barger’s original book. Not much has changed except Jason’s take on the concept. In the Business Leader Edition, he adds a new twist to the “Step Back” movement.

The conveyors start turning. More minutes pass. Finally bags start falling on to the conveyor. Everyone edges a little closer to the carousel.
An elderly lady who moves a little slower than the rest sees her bag fall onto the carousel and attempts to make her way through the unwilling crowd. “Excuse me. Excuse me.” She reaches the edge of the carousel only to see her bag has already passed by. She’ll have to wait.
