The Journey
Quote of the Week
Last week in Hoshin training we learned methods and tools to help facilitate the telling of compelling stories that promote change. The theme of the day was learning how to tell the truth. Until we are able to be honest about where we are and why we are there it is impossible to motivate people to do something differently. Great leaders are willing to share the truth and then do something about it.
“Great leadership does not mean running away from reality. Sometime the hard truths might just demoralize the company, but at other times sharing difficulties can inspire people to take action that will make the situation better.” –John Kotter
