Phase Two: AIM squarely at the future
It’s impossible to truly aim a Slinky, but we can point it in the right direction. When it goes astray, we can redirect it until it goes where we want it to go.
Change is like that
Leaders are meant to be out front They need to see farther than others see
Vision inspires followers Change is driven by vision
Vision isn't a solitary thing It must be shared by all who are in leadership
Vision is like: 1. Glue - it holds us together
2. A magnet - it attracts new people
3. A yardstick - it measures our progress A yardstick - it measures our progress
4. A laser - it points out our destiny A laser - it points out our destination
A good vision is a preferred dream of the future. Good leaders have dreams in their eyes.
