Transformation starts with transparency. Because people want to know what they are getting themselves into, why they are doing it, and what is going to happen to them.
If you want your project to succeed, don’t hide anything from your people. Be kind. Tell them the truth. When you do, you are more likely to succeed.
According Traci Fenton, ‘Transparency is at work when ideas and information are openly and responsibly shared.’
‘For leaders to own their inner power, they must have a moral compass- and use it.’
‘Purpose and vision are at work when each individual and the organization know their reason for being and have a sense of intentional direction.’
‘Integrity is at work when each individual and the organization uphold high moral and ethical principles.’
‘Dialogue and Listening are at work when each individual listens and engages in conversation in a way that deepens meaning and connection.’
‘Accountability is at work when each individual and the organization are responsible to each other for their actions.’
‘Decentralization is at work when power is appropriately shared throughout an organization.’
‘The Individual and the Collective are at work when the rights of both are valued and respected.’
‘Choice is at work when each individual chooses between different possibilities.’
‘Fairness and Dignity are at work when each individual is treated justly and impartially and is recognized for their inherent worth.’
‘Reflection and Evaluation are at work when each individual and the organization are committed to continuous feedback and growth.’
