A Spoon Full Of Smoothie
How many of our business practices resemble using a spoon for a smoothie when we could be using straws?
What practices do you need to question, update, and reintegrate?
What practices could you do away with all together?
After sitting down to slurp a smoothie and reflecting on these questions, I encourage you to open up to the insight passing beside you every day—your people—and simply ask, “What practices can we improve and how?”
Declaration of Independence
Change is not just a possibility, it’s a certainty; and it’s happening everywhere I go. Old school leaders say, “We can’t find any help; people don’t want to work anymore” and “I’m constantly bending over backward to appease my staff”. Gone are the days when people needed your job. In today’s world, they can easily find another JOB or, better yet, make their own way. The bottom line is they don’t need you and your job anymore. You have to adapt or die or, at a minimum, become an irrelevant leader. The world has changed, and it will never return to how it was. And I think that is actually a good thing.
