Buy it , Love it ...or leave it !
You need to love what you do, the passion on your duties and goal makes your dreams come true.
Very good point. It is essential to have a passion for what you do. And to make that contagious so the people you are working with are excited and enthused too. Thanks, Susna
I agree,enthusiasm and passion are essentual for progress.
Hi Ron
Sounds like you have found the secret sauce to everything! Enthusiasm and passion work in most situations - work, play, relationships, learning. Thanks, Susan
Humans as a whole fear change and rely on the norm to get by. Any organization that remains stagnant will not last long. So change is inevitable. To be able to lead your team to change you must first secure their buy in. The team must agree that this is a good and feasible endeavor. Then you must continually remind them of this and encourage them. If you can not get your team fired up to not only accept the change but be willing to put extra effort into creating it you have already lost the battle. Motivation is the key to good leadership. By understanding the different personalities of the team you are better prepared to start the spark.
David,
We think an organization should be taught to embrace and welcome change. Yes, it is a challenge. But once people are on board with dealing with change they will embrace it. We agree that buy in is an important step. Perhaps staff should be rewarded for identifying changes and for making suggestions to benefit from change. What is important is a support system so methods are put in place to effectively work with change. Not everyone can figure it out on their own and that's what makes it scary. There are different personalities in every Team. They need to know the skills they bring to the everyone. Thanks, Susan
