There is no doubt about it, change and the rate of change that is underway, and that is coming is the Tsunami that is coming to North America.
Change to value chains, change to "labor", change in technologies, change in demographics, and the list goes on and on.
The problem is not just change, but the rate of the change, which requires an intelligent response from an organization. So the questions are;
does your organization understand the fundamentals of your current business? (do you?)
Go ask any 5 senior level or mid level people and ask them if they know what the major objectives of the company are for this coming year, ask them for the 3 greatest dangers to your company, and ask them if they have a plan to deal with them. (what would you say?)
If you get any answers, my bet is they will almost all be different and you will get many "deer in the headlights" looks from your subjects.
If you don't understand the terrain and the battle, you'll lose the war.
How would it be if you asked 5 senior people in your company and you got the same answer, the same battle plan? How would you like to be in that position? How would you feel about your chances of succeeding as a company then?
Companies will and are competing on their ability to accept, and implement intelligent change as a company in a rapid fashion. In order to do this, everyone must be on the same page. What score would you give your company out of 10?
Change is here and it is coming rapidly and in greater strength then many can imagine. Denial and ignorance are not good defenses, it could cost you your job, your company, and the future you are depending on. MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT, CHANGE IS ON THE WAY FOR YOU!
2006 is your year to wake everyone up and get your ducks in a row, and be prepared to respond quickly, where does your organization stand on knowing how to rapidly and intellegently implement change.....where do you stand as an individual?
