Illustrations of tortoise and hare racing

In our work with organizations, we recommend taking a “go slow to go fast” approach centered around enrolling key stakeholder groups from the start, both to develop and to implement the change – and making engaging skeptics a top priority.

2. Ignite Passion through the Why

3. Engage the Skeptics
