Creating Progress

Creating Progress In A World of Change, by Dean Lindsay, World Gumbo Publishing 2019 

                    All progress is change, not all change is progress.  

Lindsay believes that the way to create progress is to "be progress"  -  its a different way of seeng your organization.  But unless you are Steve Jobs or Bill Gates, chances are your company will need some help to make this big attitutudinal "adjustment" and that's where Creating Progress comes in.

Armed with a tool-set designed to identify and practice progress and change opportunities, the idea is to engage employees personally in the shift by calling up positive psychology, motivation and commitment.  Lindsay calls it the Six P's:

*  Peace of mind

*  Pleasure

*  Profit

*  Prestige

*  Pain avoidance

*  Power

Lindsay, author of best-seller How To Achieve Big Phat Goals, shows how a company's positive characteristics strongly influence how customers see them as well.  If there is not a clear, smooth connection between employees, leadership and product, customers sense it and back away.  Sure, your products may rise for awhile, but once consumers understand more of what they really stand for, Lindsay says they will walk.

Read the story "The Umbrella Man," page 149 - it tells the whole story of character, ambition, and out-of-this-world customer service.
