Thought Tweet #857.5

Thought Tweet #857.5 Strange as it may seem, people shut down when they know you will put down their ideas.

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Try putting an end to receiving input then vetoing ideas and shutting people down.

Even better, try putting an end to asking for input then vetoing ideas and shutting people down...that one really burns people.

Thought Tweet #857

by Rick Baker
On Oct 29, 2013

Thought Tweet #857 It is better to believe in people's ability to change than in people's fate for the status quo.

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Some people believe people cannot change. They envision a future of status quo or some other fate.

Some people believe people can change for the better. They envision bright and better futures.

Leaders embrace the latter belief.
