You explain things to people ... but they don’t change.

You explain things to people ... but they don’t change.




They might get it ... but they don’t change.
The message hits too close to home.

They resist.
Put up walls.

My friend Dr Louise Van Rhyn tells a story about a story.
She uses it in consultancy training ... to frame a shift.

From blame to ownership.
From passive recipient … to active creator.

Empowered leadership.

People remember that story (about sandwiches).
It doesn’t just teach ... it shifts perspective.

It slips into one's mental map.
Rewires thinking.
Powerfully.
Quietly.

What story are you telling to shift minds?
What story are you telling yourself?

What's really going on

“ … all of us hold on tightly to many things we don’t really have.” This line from Patrick Rhone’s book - This Could Help - got me thinking about our attitudes toward pipelines, relationships, and services.

Think Different

I love it when there's a seemingly Unreasonable Agenda. The Apple Think Different campaign epitomised this. Just look at the change makers: Albert Einstein: Questioned absolute space-time. Bob Dylan: Reimagined song meanings poetically. Martin Luther King Jr.: Envisioned equality beyond segregation. Richard Branson: Ignored business conventions fearlessly.
