Summary:You probably know all you need to know about mechanisms to transform your enterprise: performance measurement, strategic management, human capital development, lean Six Sigma, total quality, data analytics and more. What you may be missing is personal -- the way you think about your life and your business, your mental stances. Most enterprise transformation "success" can be attributed to mental stances, not to methodologies or mechanisms. The attitude coming from the top levels of management is key to enterprise transformation. Practice the following eight exercises daily to adopt more constructive mental stances and propel transformation throughout your enterprise. These are 1. Where there's a will there's a way. 2. Clear intention is what people want. 3. Clear intention creates results. 4. Leaders hold themselves accountable. 5. Seeing your system in a larger context is a powerful lens. 6. Storytelling never ends. 7. Connecting is a prime directive. 8. Choosing is a thrill.
