World Partners Change Tell, sell, link, think. There, I've said the C-word. Often the real measure of our 'success' is not the number of plans and strategies we can whip up, but how well we react to unforeseen changes that demand priority and effortlessly frustrate those 'anointed' plans. One of the ships is denied a berth. A team member dies.
Funds evaporate overnight.
New ideas emerge when old ones no longer satisfy. Not incompatible, but different and worthy of respect and understanding. At one level, our recruiting is advertising. Traditionally, one 'tells' of his product with a view to 'sell' it. The task is not completed, however, until that person is able to 'think' that they are ready to take concrete steps towards mission involvement.
