 A question is often asked of CEO Jeff Bezos, what is going to change in the next 10 years? He often replies, I think about what is not going to change. Understanding unpredictability of change in business involves knowing constants, consumer desire for lower prices, faster shipping and more options. In leadership, those answers include the need for inclusion, gratitude, empathy, freedom of voice and freedom to learn, all tenets of great character. Wise leaders nurture those things we know will never change, such as the value of the individuals on our teams. Recognizing what should not change, how valuable and significant our people are, illuminates what could change or be different, which is our personal characters, our moral qualities, standards and principles that foster or denature inclusion. According to Bezos, when you have something that you know is true, even over the long term, you can afford to put a lot of energy into it. As leaders, understand what does not change, the true value of our people, and then put all effort into growing what could change our personal characters. Lead well this week.
