"You're not only writing for the leadership - you're always writing for the gallery." - Gunnar Fischer Gunnar brought a juicy challenge to Wednesday: his company is running three transformations in parallel, at three different levels, all at different stages and degrees of success. People are exhausted. The word "change" triggers an allergic reaction. And yet, in the same breath, those same people will tell you the organization needs to change. So how do you create momentum in a climate worn down by theater and abandoned initiatives, when the managers who launched them have moved on?

Even hinting "I think I know your situation, and I took a note from our last conversation" opens people up.
