Actually it was a couple of chemical engineers from 3M The noticed a semi-sticky glue and tried it on notepads They brought it to the attention of several management groups but no one was interested. So they hit on the idea of giving postit notes to all the secretaries in the executive office. When the secretaries ran out, they asked for more. They told them the idea was shelved. The secretaries asked the CEO to get them more The rest is history. Susan Harkins wrote: >Thanks Kathryn... > >Don't you wish you'd thought of post-its?
