Catching a Second Wind for Change – Risk & Reward

Change dominates the workplace from suport and sales to top producers and executive management. Reengineering and effective risk-taking are serious business because complacency is dangerous to business health. Resistance to change stifles profits and paralyzes innovative strategies. David takes the mythology out of risk taking and directly addresses fear as an organization learning disability.

Playing it safe… the status quo…  mediocrity… leads to boredom, depression and dis-ease. Taking action requires greater confidence, self-knowledge and courage.
