The saying goes: “Trust comes on foot, but leaves on horseback”. In other words, trust takes a long time to build and can be destroyed in a minute! Trust is a soft skill, but it can be brutally hard when it is not there. Trust is agile in the sense that we can work on our trustworthiness but we can not force someone to trust us. Trust has an impact on speed and cost as well.

Every one of my female friends has the same configuration in her kitchen. The top drawer holds the day-to-day cutlery. The third drawer has tea towels and place mats. It’s so commonplace there’s even a shop in Melbourne called Third Drawer Down. In the second drawer, however, it’s barely contained chaos.

“A vision without a strategy remains an illusion.” – Lee Bolman I have to confess that in the first 20 years of my career I didn’t think that strategy was very important. However, since I became a consultant and started advising business and charity leaders, I am convinced of its importance. A lack of strategy results in a scatter gun approach, that feels chaotic and usually fails.

Businesses falter because they get complacent and/or they assume they will be immune to a downturn in the market, a supply chain disruption, or a talent shortage… to

Your buyers’ lives, preferences, and expectations have changed. Over two-thirds of buyers prefer remote or digital interactions — and they expect those interactions to be substantive and valuable.
