Отрывок из книги

“The 7 Crucial Conversations is a unique model for organizations to grow and innovate in a team-based way with a powerful transformation accelerator.”

―Penny Pennington, Managing Partner, Edward Jones

.....

It's an approach that works because we are organized around a shared purpose. That purpose is to partner for positive impact to improve the lives of our clients and colleagues, and together, better our communities and society. It's a purpose that guides everything we do. Every decision is made, and every action is done, through the lens of our purpose. It's our “why.” It reinforces the notion that our firm does not exist only to help people build wealth. We're more than that. We help people achieve things they might never have otherwise thought possible. We help them connect to their own purpose and bring it to life. Our purpose is the wellspring of our culture, leadership, business strategy, capabilities approach, and operating model. It demands that there be a logical connection among all those dimensions of our approach to growth and innovation.

For us to be able to serve our purpose throughout our second century in business as well as we did during our first, we must transform. Our purpose demands it.
