“Lately, when I hear the word ‘innovation,’ I’m tempted to tune out,” he wrote. “I don’t think I’m the only one.”
Change is more likely to last when it feels attainable, Mr. Banks said, outlining three strategies to support this approach:
1. Clarify the intention. Ensure the team understands the problem and why the change is happening.
