Three Questions to Assess Your Change Readiness

"The real act of discovery consists not in finding new lands but in seeing with new eyes." Marcel Proust, French Novelist (1871-1922)

Here are three questions to help you face the challenge of change:
1. Do you see opportunities others don't? Change breeds opportunity. Don't out-compete your rivals; reinvent the rules of the game by finding new opportunities first. Therein lies the fun.
2. Can your clients live without you? Options constantly evolve. If your products and services aren't indispensable, clients are likely to move on.
3. Are you learning as fast as the world is changing? As a leader, you absolutely cannot afford to stop learning. Seek out ways to evolve and be humble enough to know you do not always have the answer.
