BACKGROUND

Many organizations are reeling under the pressures caused by a combination of fast-changing market conditions, plummeting budgets and new demands from customers.

Some are tackling the challenge with a regular dose of 'flavor of the month'. Needless to say, the changes brought about in these situations are typically superficial with benefits short-lived. The organization will soon revert to its original state, leaving staff more skeptical, confused and angry.

Effective leaders understand that their organizations need to constantly innovate, change and adapt. To do this, people need to know about future changes, and particularly the reasons for them. Better still, Leaders need to be pro-active; anticipating the future and preparing their people for the challenge.
