Two Minute Tip


Would it be the leaders to be able to really move forward? Based on what you've written in your book? What would be that short, sharp tip you'd give? 

I think the key is to stop being a creature of habit and be a creature of purpose. Essentially and I mean, leaders are asked to do this all the time, really find your why, begin with the end of mind, but like that, really, that is the key is to keep refreshing that because so many people have said this for such a long time, you know, changes, familiar change is constant. 

Well, it's true. And the last two years have been significant in terms of our ability to get together and to get together with who we chose. And it's just made radical differences. And of us being online. Like enabling you and I to have this conversation so easily together, without having to get on a plane and travel for a day or so. Yeah, travel across the ditch. Yeah, just across the ditch. It is. Also, it makes it easy, being able to work electronically, but electronic doesn't ever replace human interactions. So it's really learning how to create the human interaction. And it's been willing to stop being a creature of habit and really being willing to learn what's required now, which is a new way of relating. 

And people who are coming back to work and are coming back to face to face work are not going to tolerate boring meetings. They're not going to tolerate being in groups with people they don't want to be with. And so, leaders are going to have to do something that really makes people want to be together and want to work together and want to produce together. Yeah, so that's the challenge. And that's my two minutes tip. Thank you reflect and learn continuously. That's powerful. Yeah. 

Thanks again for your time and knowledge Diana, thank you for helping us create a better future.
