Take The Leap

Life is boring, work is boring, you are stuck in a rut and need some new excitement.  This is when it may be time to take a flying leap into unknown territory. Quit thinking and do it.

I am sure you have heard at work that it is time for change, yet nothing really ever changes.   If you want to see significant change in your organization, then get started with action.  Getting employees doing vs. thinking, will create quicker change. I am a big believer in planning and thinking things through, but do not get the "analysis paralysis" disease or in simple terms "all talk and no show".  Getting employees involved in the change that will impact their work days will get you much higher buy in and less skepticism.

No matter what area you want to change in your business - get your employees involved will produce better results.  Please remember to be patient, give them ample time, and be the cheerleader not the impatient leader of old.

Be the leader that takes the leap first, gives the tools to the organization to do the same, and then gets out of the way of the tsunami of creativity and energy that will be unleashed.

Victor -

Great stuff!

Inspiration is sparked by Thinking + TAKING Action.

And it takes leaders to bring these two together!

The cool thing is the leader can be at the top of the company... but it can also be leaders at all levels of an organization!

Keep the great ideas flowing buddy!

You are awesome!

Great comments, Victor. I couldn't agree more.

I think people need to take the time to plan things AT LEAST 80% out and then jump in with the understanding the next 20% will take shape.

With that said, I believe they always need to be aware of the changes in the market that could be fatal or could be turned into opportunities.

As you know, my business model has changed several times within the last 6 months. I took the time to THINK, plan, adjust and jump back in.

Same applies to large organizations and the small groups within them... Done properly I believe those active leaders can create true entrepreneurial companies within the existing company.

Fun stuff...
