Leaders change for the Better
….by Marsha D. Egan, CPCU, CPIW, ACC
 


 Leaders Change for the Better!
 
 "We live in a moment of history where change is so
 speeded up that we begin to see the present only
 when it is already disappearing."
 -R. D. Laing
 
 Leaders embrace change.
 They understand that their environment is not
 static;
 Sure, it's uncomfortable!
 Changing helps them stay ahead of the pace
 And they improve as they grow.
 
 "Any change, even a change for the better, is always
 
 accompanied by drawbacks and discomforts."
 -Arnold Bennett
 
 10 SECOND REALITY CHECK
 Do you resist change?
 Are you proactive or reactive in responding to new
 things?
 Do you see change as an opportunity?
 
 "Only the wisest and stupidest of men never change."
 
 -Confucius
 
 
 FOOD FOR THOUGHT
 You can't change the pace of change.
 You can only adjust how you respond to it.
 Not changing can leave you "in the dust."
 Changes present new opportunities.
 
 "It is not necessary to change; survival is not
 mandatory." --W. Edward Demming
 
 SO WHAT WILL YOU DO DIFFERENTLY
 React positively to proposed new ideas
 Think of ways you can make them work
 See changing as your "ticket to the future."
 And enjoy the results!
 
 "If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't
 grow,
 we aren't really living."
 -Gail Sheehy
 
 Enjoy changing for the better!
 Marsha
