The Golden Five - 4 - You...

Five actions to take to accelerate IT and business change

You...

Are told that you must lead, you must communicate, you must do this and you must do that

Well, you will only ever do any of this, to the best of your ability, for one reason, and one reason alone, because you want to

Because you choose to

You, and everyone else you know, and everyone else of this planet

So what?

So, the single most important thing to unleash in your team, in your projects and in your organisation, is desire to want to give their best

PASSION

How passionate are your people, today?

Lots - great

Ask them why and do more of the same

Less than lots -

Ask them why not and what you and they can do about it

Now,

1. Do what I suggest

2. Disagree - please post comment or e-mail me davidprivate@nakedleader.com - The IT Deal is this - you disagree, then you also put forward your own suggestion on what to do instead

3. Do what you have always done (and get what you have always got)
