In times of constant change, the effectiveness of forcing change is diminishing. We need a different path to successful change. April Mills will share her key insight of Driving Change, Not People. Driving Change is choosing a change for yourself and clearing the obstacles for others to choose it too. Driving People is using coercion or authority to compel others to change. Once we have the terms set, we will then have a “Yeah, but…” workshop, where we highlight and overcome various obstacles to successfully driving change, not people. Feel free to study ahead on Driving Change by picking up a copy of April’s Everyone Is a Change Agent or Change Tactics or listening to the audio book of Everyone Is a Change Agent. All of April’s proceeds from the books go to building a retreat center for families with children with special needs, Gully Crest Homestead.
