Description
In his book Leading Change (HBS Press 1996), John Kotter states:
"A strategy of embracing the past will probably become increasingly ineffective over the next few decades. Better for most of us to start learning now how to cope with change, to develop whatever leadership potential we have, and to help our organizations in the transformation process. Better for most of us, despite the risks, to leap into the future. And to do so sooner rather than later."

plans? Please discuss your thoughts ( in as much detail as possible). Please make it three separate posts.
