The Biggest home grown Wildcard yet?
Thursday 17 November 2011
Over at Futurist Marcus Barber's main website you'll find an example of some wildcard thinking. Those of you who have been through our courses know that our Strategic Issues are often exposed to risk or unexpected impacts. As always, the strategic planning discussions need to extend to the idea of capabilities available to you in case the big 'what if' happens because that kind of discussion will help you uncover gaps in your organisation's ability to cope in times of sudden stress.
The website www.lufg.com.au links to the wildcards piece - 'A Wildcard to Top them all' Just click the link and ask yourself what 'wildcard' events might be appearing on your radar screen right now

Monday 30 January 2012
I've had a good opportunity to study all sorts of organisations up close and personal so take this as one person's informed view as to the barriers to getting change to happen and to stick. There's lots of talk about internal competencies, about getting people on board, about clear direction and good communication of what is planned. But in the end my experience working across industry sectors leads me to pick one, above all other barriers to change - permission.
