What is it you say? Let me tell you a brief story.One time awhile back I was having dinner with the CEO of a $500 million tech company. We were discussing the changes he was trying to drive and how I might help. He went in to great detail all the things he was doing and how if he could sustain the efforts it would change the company. Then he turned and asked, “People just don’t get behind it. What is the key to driving these changes?”We all know that is the question of the century.
