No Mountain too High - Challenging Change with the Adventure
Attitude
“The challenge of change is forcing us to rethink our
values and to rekindle our spirit of adventure. It will take
courage, resourcefulness and endurance to meet this challenge
- the courage to try, to commit and to take more risks; the
resourcefulness to be innovative and creative in finding new
ways of doing old things; and the endurance to keep moving forward
despite all the setbacks.”
Straight to the Top and beyond - Nine Keys for Meeting the Challenge
of Changing Times
Change is inevitable ... and increasing! Rapid and radical
change is the primary challenge facing corporations and professionals
today. We cannot stop this change, nor can we ignore it. But
we can increase our ability to adapt, to manage change effectively,
and to benefit from the numerous opportunities that change creates.
In these rapidly -changing times, the metaphor of adventure
is the perfect vehicle for articulating the strategy that will
help us address this challenge. By definition, adventure involves
dealing with the uncertain, the unpredictable and the unknown,
just as change involves moving towards a future in which there
are no guarantees. To succeed in the uncertain world of the
1990's and the 21st century, we must learn to embrace change,
and to become visionary and adventurous in dealing with the
economic, social, and political environments in which we must
all operate.
