Change is not permanent for two reasons. One is based on resilience, the other on fragility. First, resilient communities and systems are always changing and adapting. It’s their nature and that is normal. Second, fragile communities and systems can be so uncomfortable with change that they try to return to their previous state. We saw this in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic when so many organizations, communities, and systems were yearning to return to “normal” as quickly as possible. What is normal is to Continuously Change Forward. That’s the subject of the 10th lesson in the full Getting Started with the Tenacious Change Approach.
For ten weeks we have shared these video snippets from the full Getting Started with the Tenacious Change Approach streaming video course. This is the last in the series of ten. The week of September 5th we’ll be launching the full course. Until then we’ll tell you more about the course and why it makes an important contribution to the field of community change for the greater good.
For even more, watch the full 20-minute overview “sneak preview” video HERE.
