Change or Die - The Fast Company
All leadership comes down to this: changing people's behavior. Why is that so damn hard? Science offers some surprising new answers -- and ways to do better.
Change or Die? What if you were given that choice? For real. What if it weren't just the hyperbolic rhetoric that conflates corporate performance with life and death... We're talking actual life or death now. Your own life or death. What if a well-informed, trusted authority figure said you had to make difficult and enduring changes in the way you think and act? If you didn't, your time would end soon -- a lot sooner than it had to. Could you change when change really mattered? When it mattered most?
![Page 32: Seven Threads of Ministry](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587bc2db1a28ab6c3c8b4ae7/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Yes, you say?Try again.Yes?You're probably deluding yourself.You wouldn't change.Don't believe it? You want odds? Here are the odds, the scientifically studied odds: nine to one. That's nine to one against you. How do you like those odds?
