IllustrateB&A

Change can no longer just be- a one-time initiative, but an ongoing capability. Shall we always clarify before & after (B&A), ponder sequence & consequence, logically?

The world is dynamic, nonlinear,

uncertain, ambiguous,

communication has occurred, 

 when the message is -

received, understood, 

reciprocally;

before telling,

listen with-

an open mind, objectively;

after telling, ensure -

your words have been understood,

in the same sense that-

you meant them,

to reflect thoughts,

engage in -

“giving & taking” communication,

candidly;

enforce a bidirectional cycle of-

questions & answers, reciprocally.

Innovation needs vision to inspire,

imagination to spur;

before ideation,

create “aha” moment,

spark creativity;

cool down over-enthusiastic emotion,

to reason “the art of possible”;

isn’t being creative

the mind with -

thinking process,

holding onto -

its natural connectivity while -

being prepared to -

connect the dots,

even in the opposite direction,

generate novel ideas, unbelievably?

After ideation,

could you experiment, prototype,

test, implement,

roll ideas into reality, inspirationally?

Change is the problem if-

for its own sake;

before change,

have a learning curve awareness;

understand psychology behind changes,

people do not resist to change,

but resist being changed;

Change in people has -

the same impact,

just in varying degrees,

producing some degree of anxiety,

isn’t engaging around change -

a far deeper, more difficult challenge?

After change,

identify where you want to be, clearly;

have yardsticks along-

the way at -

regular intervals to-

assess progress, accurately;

change can no longer just be-

a one-time initiative,

but an ongoing capability.

Shall we always clarify before & after,

ponder sequence & consequence, logically?
