Time and again, we have heard that transitions are challenging and difficult. They also represent an opportunity to be collaborative and creative in addressing change effectively. Embracing thegood type of conflict. Last time, I talked about the process. This time, the focus is on the results.

One possible result is a greater acceptance of the fact that change is happening all the time – and that we would do well to notice it and adapt more frequently. We can also prepare ourselves better for the big, unexpected changes. Another result could be greater openness to the idea that everyone can have a voice, even if not a vote, and making that openness a part of the culture and adopted policies. Finally, we could step away from the idea that almost everything is right or wrong, black or white, all or nothing. Instead, we could look for ways to be collaborative and creative, and then improve our options and our outcomes.
