Greatness is possible. You can do it if you believe in yourself, if you think you can do it.
Greatness is possible if you are willing to do the work. To get there, you have got to change how you see yourself.
And ‘to go beyond great, companies today must do good and maximize their TSI (Total Societal Impact), a goal that over the long term will enable them to also grow shareholder returns.’
‘Attracting and inspiring talented young employees won’t be enough for most companies to meet their talents needs. Companies must take steps to teach their existing workforce new skills and behaviors, what some have termed upskilling.‘
‘In the years ahead, companies must thrive with talent, putting people and their needs first rather than regarding them as resources to exploit.’
‘Companies can’t take their people for granted if they hope to succeed with always-on transformation- they have to make them their central focus.’
‘Transformation must become an always-on proposition, an essential part of operating your business.’
‘Winning at such an endurance contest means building up a fundamentally new kind of transformation capacity inside your organization.’
‘Companies can’t just attend to their people (the heart of traditional, best-practice transformation). They have to make the heart their central focus by attending to purpose, culture, empathy, and leadership.’
‘With change initiatives shifting, overlapping with, and impacting one another, companies and leaders must fundamentally reset their and the organization’s ambitions (the head part of traditional transformation). They must articulate a far broader, more comprehensive understanding of where they’re going over the long term as well as how they’ll prioritize and focus to reach this desired state.’
‘To execute ongoing always-on transformation, companies must double down on agile and build an even nimbler set of hands by cultivating new capabilities and adopting strong governance models.’
‘To go beyond great, leaders must feel comfortable with handling both elements of a binary, and they must help their people feel comfortable as well.’
