I love Ernesto Sirolli's talk about how leaders need to "shut up and listen": http://workingtogether68.blogspot.ca/2012/12/when-will-we-shut-up-and-listen.html Shelley Beleznayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00981654330766573108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6873784874014806142.post-33343033149693431052013-06-14T13:19:43.076-07:002013-06-14T13:19:43.076-07:00Great words Shelley,

In programs that teach about managing change, they always talk about assessing what is working and what is not working in the current system. It seems like some new management will step in and implement broad sweeping change without really considering the local context. Local context is important, because even if a program is absolutely perfect in other places, local issues could interfere with the success of any plan or program. :)<br /><br />Thanks for the great read Shelley!

Everything seems simple - rosy - when we map it out in our plans, but on the ground, there are obstacles AND strengths that are not taken into account.Shelley Beleznayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00981654330766573108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6873784874014806142.post-28655567595160262422013-05-11T16:10:49.370-07:002013-05-11T16:10:49.370-07:00Hi Shelly

Although growing a plan from the ground up is such a simplistic concept, it can easily be overlooked when the leaders can only see things through rose coloured glasses.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07979907123391691065noreply@blogger.com
