A versatile player
The NFL season started last week, which gave me a chance to see my favorite player, Taysom Hill of the New Orleans Saints, in action. He’s special in that he can play as quarterback, running back, wide receiver, and kick returner – and I’ve probably forgotten a couple of other positions he can handle.
Contrary to what you might think, the best consultants are like Taysom, not one-dimensional specialists. If they weren’t, you might find that some of their work has a lot of undesirable consequences in other areas of your business.
A lasting change
There are three ways to create change in your organization – make an intellectual argument, make an emotional appeal, and make the change easy for people to adopt.
- Intellectual argument will help establish agreement
- Emotional appeals will help generate willingness
- Making change easy will drive action
If you want to create lasting change in your organization, every initiative should combine all three.
A way to work with me
In my experience, many CEOs and business owners spend too much time on operational issues at the expense of evolving strategy, driving innovation and creating change. One of my biggest strengths is in helping leaders refocus, eliminate drags on their productivity and spend more time working on the busines, instead of in it.
