Change is growth. No change, no growth. If you are not willing to change, you are not going to grow.
Change is doing things differently.
When it comes to changing your organization, according to Robert W. Jacobs, ‘Significant transformations call for the development of new structures, systems, practices, skills, and processes to support the successful institutionalization of these new ways of doing business.’
‘During real time strategic change events, leaders must use discretion in determining how much interpretation of the common database should be carried out by the large group.’
‘Leaders need to pay attention to the throttle of organizational change; keep closer than ever to stakeholders, especially internal ones; stay flexible; and continually review plans and progress.’
‘Cogent explanations of a leader’s own needs shape the purpose of the overall process and sometimes influence certain aspect of individual events.’
‘The leader of the change effort must sign up the top leadership they can provide for it.’
‘Organizational leaders must believe in what they are presenting.’
‘A system-wide paradigm shift needs to occur at some point in the process in order for a real time strategic change effort to succeed.’
‘Changes are made in how business gets done in the organization because everyone starts doing business differently.’
‘Change happens system-wide because everyone decides it is time.’
‘The only way to bring about significant change across the entire organization is for everybody- including you- to make it happen, to start doing things differently.’
