Changing state

Sometimes there is a compelling need to change the individual and collective state of people in a Board Room.

One of the most powerful ways to do this is for an external facilitator to invite members to discuss, debate and finally to agree on the answers to four very simple questions. These concern the ‘what’, the ‘how much’, the ‘who’ and the ‘when by’ of business activities. The result is a Bull’s Eye measurable statement of excellence for the organisation that can be understood by everyone on the payroll.

We are all familiar with the process of changing state because we consciously do it all the time. The pub, the church, the mountains, the football match, the art gallery, these are all places we may deliberately choose to go to deliberately change our state.

A change of state can enable us to see, hear, feel and think differently. That is why it is such a vitally important thing to be able to do in the Board Room.
