I feel a little stupid for not thinking of this myself/earlier, though.

I found this article quite insightful. I have lead major change efforts at financial institutions and your characterizations of the different 'faces' of resistance was spot on! I align with your view that resistance is a great indicator of where the additional communication must take place to be truly successful.

With that said, I also ascribe to the tenant that 'if you can't change the people, change the people'...

Gail.

BRAVO!

I'm simply amazed by so much concentrated wisdom packed in a single article. I hope to memorise this and am giving myself a day for that.

I too have a blog on leadership - Leadership Demystified [http://leadership-demystified.blogspot.com]. Do visit it and share your comments. Thanks.

As long as social loafing is minimized, the idea is great! A great team make-up, along with specific team player objectives can help to prevent social loafing.

This is a very innovative approach to identify what needs to be done by more people in leadership, regardless of the level. I would suggest that these commandments be posted in all offices in all places. Kudos to the author.- Skipper, The Bison Group
