Stepping Out and Stepping Up! by Chris Alexander
“Good fortune is what happenswhen opportunitymeets with planning.” Thomas Edison
Stepping out! • A Psychology of Shared Destiny • Committed Leaders Empowered Teams = Synergy • You can’t order change like you order a pizza
Stepping Up! • People Centered Change • You are in the energy business • Dreams are always more powerful than the impossible
“If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, one will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.” Henry David Thoreau
Stepping up! Create a Vision Statement, Core Values, and Goal Plan
Vision • Vision is a vital prerequisite when planning for Quality. Many mission statements (sometimes written by advertising agencies) are not effective. General statements are not specific enough and are of little guidance to the organization.
ImagineThe Power of Imagination • Imagination Is the Playground of Potential • It’s the Source of Possibility and the Foundation of Probability • Imagination - Where the Seeds of Greatness Are Sown and Where the Power of Belief Begins
ImagineThe Power of Imagination • Heroes of Imagination Stepped Out! The Wright Brothers, Henry Ford, Martin Luther King, Albert Einstein, Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla and George Westinghouse, they imagined: Radios, Televisions, Telephones, Computers, Air-conditioning, Highways, Spacecrafts and the Internet, and … All Were Told it Would Be Impossible.

BelieveThe Power of Core ValuesStepping up to do the right thing! • Core values form the foundation of a trusting culture • Core values define, inform, and guide businesses • Core Values form a platform for decision making • Values = Moral Compass = Integrity • Values must be clearly displayed • Leadership must “walk the talk”
AchieveThe Power of Goal SettingStepping out to “Just do it” • Merge Vision and Values into Action • Goals must be aligned with the Vision and Values • Have Clearly Defined and Very Specific, Realistic Written down Goals • Directed Synergy = Shared destiny = increased revenues • Clearly communicate expectations • And Go to Work . . . And Never, Never, Never Give up
If you don’t manage change, change will manage YOU! “It’s not the size of the dogin the fight;but the size of the fight in the dog!” Stepping up!!
