HI Jeff, I used a similar approach but just using my own resources. No outside consultants.
Where I am now, the cultural change has taken a really long time - I would gather about 10 years in the making. Obviously, w/ progress throughout that period. How the cultural change took place is not a mythic story in the design lab, but this is what I understand. 1) Have a leader 2) Leader has to have a collection of visions 3) Leader doesn't tell the vision to anyone (as this would be too overwhelming) 4) Leader creates a plan for making vision become reality in small disconnected steps (at least seemingly so from the outside) 5) before anyone realizes it, you have created the need (not the cultural change) for your vision, and thus everyone thinks they thought of it and start asking for it to become reality. I know Dan said that few have the patience for this approach. I know I don't. ;-), but having seen it work, it does help me have patience for maybe something in between. ;) -- dave . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
