Michael wants to know what happens to shared visions when people come and
go. What an excellent question, Michael !
Let me share feedback I received a little while ago.
I'll quote in the first person:
"...you want to come here and introduce another program for us. I've been
here 23 years and seen 8 General Managers come and go. Each one had a
different idea for us...each one had a different vision. We're sick and
tired of new programs. We're expected to change, but [they] don't. This
new GM talks about us becoming a learning company; don't talk to us, talk
to the bosses who control our bosses, what are they going to learn...."
I don't have the answers for you Michael, but I suspect your question will
make a lot of us feel very uncomfortable. I look forward to what others
say...
