A little while later, after you eat it and get it down, you start feeling tired, bloated and real sick to your stomach. That's kinda' how I feel here ... a little sick and not right."

    One of my project managers leaned over and said that to me in a change meeting when the Senior VP of Human Resources had just hijacked our change plane. It was unbelievable but true. After all this time, with the old leader sitting nearby, this guy is delivering the goods on our work. Where has he been all this time?

When we were invited to this ‘update’ the email led us to believe we were coming to hear the 'Straight Talk Express". Like, let’s get be honest and do what needs done to get this thing on schedule. Instead, this guy stands up, with all his compatriots in the room, including the CEO cleaning his nails, and lays some smack on us.

    As the change leader, you must be part Gunnery Sergeant and make things happen, part JFK and inspire people to believe, and part Intelligence Officer to insure you see things like this guy coming.

Leading change requires a ton of courage and if you don’t have it – you lose.
