Recenty I was speaking in front of a group of accountants, managers, and entrepreneurs in Sardinia. The topic of my discussion was “Change”. During the presentation I used Fiat as an example of change, how with the new 500 has developed from 50 years ago to 2008. I would have never guessed that in 2009 that Fiat would be running Chrysler. Truly a great change and a moment of significant pride for Italy.
The word “change” is significant to Americans. President Obama made this word a central theme during is campaign. In business, in my opinion, change is critical not only to survival by to success. The significance depends on how each manager defines the word and more importantly, how it is applied.
In these difficult times, within your business, is it possible to affect change? If yes, as a leader of your team, how do you guide your staff towards change?
