What to expect when you make it happen

REALLY HARD TO LET GO

You’ve got to give some stuff up to add new stuff in

Even some of your top performers may not make the cut

SOME GOOD PEOPLE CAN’T DO IT

Some people may not want to make the changes

TURN OVER

People will “switch back” to the old way if you let them

DEFAULT SETTINGS

BRAIN DAMAGE

You’re going to make some mistakes along the way

YOU’LL SCREW SOME THINGS UP
