innovative companies. To sharpen an organization's receptivity
to change, several ingredients are essential. First and foremost,
top management must be deeply and personally involved in the
process. |

See change as an opportunity. Bring people
into the change process. Start with senior managers and provide all
managers with the tools and training they needed to engineer and drive
change throughout the company. Prepare employees for change by
incorporating the very concept into the values of the organization. |

achieving them. |

interact with them in a way that

they’d like to go. Every time we
waste that opportunity, every
page or sentence that doesn’t do
enough to advance the cause is
waste...
