   Daily Inspiration: "To be a part of tomorrow, you need to be a part of the journey!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

   An organization will never successfully get to where it needs to go if it doesn't have the full support and understanding of its team - and in some cases, my role is to help build that support and understanding.
   Here's a photo from when I was doing a stage check on Friday in Birmingham, England, before my keynote Saturday for service managers of KwikFit, an automotive services company with hundreds of locations throughout the UK. It was a pretty large crowd, with about 500 of them in the room; my keynote was the closing bit for this short one-day event that the leadership organized, with a message that had an eye to the future.

   Many of my keynotes are for senior leadership teams of organizations as they take on the major challenges and trends impacting their industry. And yet, many others are like this event - one where the leadership team thinks that it is important that those 'in the trenches' - the individuals throughout the organization who are interacting with customers, doing the heavy lifting, and undertaking the overall mission of the organization - need to understand how things might change in the future.

   In other words, it's important that if they are to be part of tomorrow, they need to be part of the journey - and in fact, will bear much responsibility for the success of that journey. That's why, at the opening of my talk, I challenged them with this observation: "

   “Innovation and change is going to invade your life. The big question is - what are you going to do with it?”
