"Too many good people are leaving the
ver y organisations that could benefit
from them staying, if only management
knew how to make that happen."
actually look at the talents and passions
of the people they already have working
with them, and ask, “How can we enable
them to tap into their purpose here in
our workplace, and as a result, create
an organisation that people want to be a
part of?”
On the flipside, as an employee, you
might have a job that not necessarily
lights your fire, so you might decide to
adopt a project outside of work that you
can investigate and have a bit of fun with,
which does tap into a passion that you have.
You don’t need to quit your job to do that. If
it is something that you’re passionate about,
do it! Don’t wait for someone else to give
you permission.
Change has to come from the top down.
It comes from finding the change makers
and the entrepreneurial spirits already
within organisations – or ‘intrapreneurs’
as they are called now. It comes from
conscious people within organisations who
are willing to have conversations and begin
to drive movements from within.
