003-2025 Think

3/365

Have had this motto for many years, having worked for IBM through the 70s-90s.

“THINK” was the slogan developed by Thomas Watson Sr. when he was a sales manager for the National Cash Register Company, exhorting his salesmen to use their heads, not their feet—their job was to think. As IBM CEO during the 1920s, Watson continued to encourage innovation and “THINK” became a ubiquitous slogan in IBM paraphernalia including notepads, advertising, products—even the title of the company magazine. By the 1950s, IBM sales staffs distributed “THINK" signs like this one to their customers.
