Written by: Brian Reich, author of SHIFT & RESET: STRATEGIES FOR ADDRESSING SERIOUS ISSUES IN A CONNECTED SOCIETY
There is an abundance of ideas and suggestions for how to address serious issues. There are new formulas and models, platforms and groups emerging to take on the challenges that exist in our society. But our tendency?and humans are creatures of habit?is to focus on the elements we can control. Too often, individuals return to what they know. Organizations repeat what they have done before. In the face of the serious issues that threaten every facet of our existence, which are growing worse by many accounts, we do not have the luxury of looking back or repeating what we have done before. If what we are doing isn?t working anymore, we have to do something different.
