"TO DEAL with change, change" seemed a good way to open a discussion on the subject recently. I might as well have opened Pandora's Box. There was uproar. Everyone was already doing that, they said, and yet they were unhappy, distracted and muddled about where they were going.
Why such disturbance? In the calm that followed one thing emerged. They wanted change to change nothing. They are perfectly comfortable as they are. They must learn to be comfortable with change.
Because in today's world, the only thing certain is change. Competition now mostly comes from newly identified, newly met needs, or innovative technologies and discoveries about the human condition that allow better control over it.
