Sacked!
Every couple of years or so I get sacked. I am working in an organisation, with the Board, helping them on their journey towards excellence, and suddenly the going gets too tough for one or more of the directors.All organisations have to be on the journey towards excellence. It is the demands of World Class competition in a remorseless knowledge world that makes this necessary.
But aspiring towards excellence is not easy. You won’t get there on the back of great products because they can be copied. You won’t do it with technology because anyone can get the same technology.
In organisations it is only people that can deliver consistent excellence. To do that people have to be open, honest and transparent and this always starts at the top. The words are so easy to write, so easy to say, but they can be devilishly difficult to deliver.
In the end however there is the truth, and there can be no running away from that.
