Gardeners Not Mechanics
How to Cultivate Change at Work
Gary Lloyd, 2021
Sobre o que é?
Manage change like gardeners who plan, experiment and nurture while accepting the limits of their control.
Recommendation
Change consultant Gary Lloyd points out that gardeners cannot predict or control their environments. They must balance art and science, proceed through trial and error, then nourish and support their crop. Leaders seeking to effect change in their organizations face similarly unpredictable and interdependent environments they can only influence, not control. The author describes the strategic planning, preparing, planting, pruning, weeding, staking and watering leaders must perform to drive sustained change.
