From possible to inevitable

How do we move the success of meaningful work from possible to inevitable?

  • Matches: Something–or someone–needs to start the fire. To create fire where there is no fire. Even when others say you’re crazy. Leaders do this.
  • Kindling: We don’t get things right the first time, but with enough kindling, we can keep the fire alive when it gets weak; with enthusiasm, vision and commitment. Leaders do this.
  • Logs: When we find traction, we need to keep it crackling so the kindling and matches can explore new ground, methodically and systematically. Leaders do this.

So, how do we move the success of meaningful work from possible to inevitable? Leaders do this.
