‘If there are no new resources to be added, the ability to do new stuff requires taking resources from old stuff. Simple but difficult.’

‘A company can be really clear about what it wants to accomplish, yet struggle to articulate the specific tasks that will make those goals come true.’

‘You can lead a transformation from the top, but you can’t implement a transformation from the top.’

Patty Azzarello

How To Stay Fresh And Relevant

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Health & Well-Being, Improve Academy, Leadership, Management, Personal Development, Workplace Learning Report

‘In order to stay fresh and relevant, innovation has to be constant.’

‘Leading innovation is about leading people into and through change.’

‘To become an innovator, you don’t need to disrupt your whole industry. You just need to focus on building relationships with your key customers and empower your team to find innovative ways to serve them better.’

‘By empowering your workers to try a different approach, new solutions can be discovered, and that’s what leads to growth.’

‘Every innovation doesn’t have to be disruptive. The world needs both disruptive and adaptive change/innovation.’

‘When you develop a culture within your team that encourages open communication and empowers people to come up with new ways of doing things, you’re encouraging agility, which results in innovation.’

‘If we stay in our comfort zone, we will not grow as leaders.’

‘Embracing change means that people need to be convinced that the change has value and is worth embracing. To do this, leaders should focus much on the people side of change as they do on the logistical side of it.’

‘No matter what is happening around us, we can only lead on the day we are leading.’

‘You have to put your attention to where you want to go, not where you don’t want to go.’

‘What do you need more of or less of?’
