Change
It seems that the 21st century has brought on many different revolutions of mind. Many of these new ways of operating are genuinely necessary and generally called for, but are we blind to some new fads that are stapled as being "new"? How much of the current change is actual change for the better?
In times of plenty we seem to grow complacent, but when scavenging for fortune among this economical debris, change and innovation are growing in importance. What may be a fertile ground to grow profitable businesses on, may also prove to be a trying grounds for inefficient processes that are being put to the test. We've had a significant leadership and management booms lately, the ecological footprint and responsibility initiatives. What about the prevailing consultant boom? Or labeling executives with MBAs to ensure their competence? Change, or stagnation?
We are so often inclined to fight for better conditions, only in order to be able to say, "we fight for better conditions". But what if you couldn't separate the two from each other, how could you see the underlying purpose, how would you know what it is you're actually endorsing? And how much is actually built on fact and not just executive sized legos?
Building blocks, building blocks.
