DESCRIPTION

This a discussion of major concepts in Robert E. Quinn's book, Change the World: How Ordinary People Can Accomplish Extraordinary Results. Participants in the Hangout will be encouraged to use personal transformation to positively impact their home life, work life, and communities -- to be "inner-directed and outer-focused." We are all potential change agents, but most of us are trapped by belief that we as individuals cannot make a difference. Informed by the teachings of Jesus, Gandhi, and Martin Luther King, Jr. -- three of the most successful change agents ever -- we will explore eight steps each of us can take to move ourselves and others to the highest levels of excellence. Armed with these steps, each of us can access and apply the power that lies within us in ways that will change our world for the better.

TRANSCEND FEAR TRANSFORMATIONAL PEOPLE HAVE MANY FEARS AND THEY ARE WILLING TO ADMIT THEM, ONLY THEN CAN THEY OUT GROW THEM. DEEP PERSONAL CHANGE ALWAYS MEANS EXPERIENCING SOME KIND OF NEGATIVE EMOTION. WE KNOW THIS AND WE FEAR IT. If we seek to seed the universe in accord with our unique mission, the necessary resources will emerge. If we fear failure and stop taking risks we will fail. Robert Quinn 16. TRANSCEND FEAR FLOWS FROM MY FUNDAMENTAL CHOICE TRANSFORMATIONAL CHANGE LEADERS TAKE RISKS TRANSFORMATIONAL CHANGE LEADERS CHALLENGE EXISTING TRADITIONS AND BELIEFS To be effective, the organization needs us to care so much about rescuing it that we would risk dying for the same system that would kill us for caring enough to propose the effort.
