Why Do We Need to Change?
Why Do We Need to Change?
Robert Quinn says “One key to successful leadership is continuous personal change. Personal change is a reflection of our inner growth and empowerment.”
It’s important to evolve and to adjust as we grow deeper in the knowledge of ourselves and those around us too.
But why are people afraid to change? Why is change so difficult when we all know it’s inevitable?
James Belasco and Ralph Stayer, authors of the book “The Flight of the Buffalo,” couldn’t have said it any better “Change is hard because people overestimate the value of what they have and underestimate the value of what they may gain by giving that up.”
This week let’s think about the changes we’re afraid of making in our own lives. Are we overestimating the value of the very things we hold near and dear to us? Are we underestimating what the future may hold? Something to think about. Let’s be more aware of the need for change.
Today we finished an upgrade to our Learning Without Scars website.
We would like to invite everyone to come take a look at our new layout here.
Brian Shanahan, of Shanahan Strategy, with whom we have been working on our websites for ten plus years, has done a terrific job for us.
This change allows our clients to utilize e-commerce to purchase any of our Learning Without Scars products. It also shows a different focus on learning by utilizing our Skill Assessment Tools. From the scores achieved on the Job Function Skills Assessment we now offer a “Learning Path” recommendation of classes to take in order to improve their Skills Level. Those classes have been reorganized and the layout of their presentation has also been re-imagined here.
With the change to the website we have focused on getting in place many of the things that our clients have requested of us so far:
- Simplicity
- Ease of Navigation
- The ability to complete transactions online
- Excitement on the site
You will ultimately be the judge. But we are pleased. You will be hearing a lot more about this each day. We hope you take some time and look at the new site and give us any feedback you wish. We would welcome your help in keeping us as the most comprehensive and current employee development platform in the Industry.
The time is now.
