What holds you back?
RISK-TAKING: “99% OF SUCCESS
IS BUILT ON FAILURE” CHARLES
KETTERING
• Tolerance for risk• Public agencies have a very low
tolerance for risk• Steadily execute standard
procedures• Passively react to new stimuli• Less risky to wait for orders to
come from above
• Take initiative and reinterpret your mission, processes, etc. in light of environmental changes
• Walk the talk, lead by example
We’re going to need a bigger boat.
THE IMPORTANCE OF VISION
• Have to know where we’re going in order to get there
• Without vision there is confusion & reactive mode of operation
• Vision transforms strategy into way of life
• Clearer the vision the greater energy for the journey
• Vision empowers people
